New Family Members

Grizabella just had two beautiful kittens today, around 4pm.

I first noticed she might be having them, when she followed me to my room, curled up next to me on my bed, and would not stop squirming, as well as the occasional grip she'd get on my hands with her teeth.

So i took her to the laundry and an hour or so after that she delivered a beautiful apricot/peach coloured kitten, and then about half an hour later a peach coloured one with black tips. They both fit in my hands beautifully.

Break This Heart




Laughter comes through heartache
Growing comes through pain
And Lord, I know You’re slowly
Teaching me
I have to lose to gain
I’ve been all too careful
Of vessels and of jars
So won’t you let your love
Break through the walls
Releasing what you are


Break this heart
Let it be open
I know it is no good
Till all the bitterness is gone
Make my life
A vessel that’s broken
So I can someday help
The one who falls

There’s nothing worse than nothing
To live yet not to feel
I’ve been numb to all the suffering
A heart as cold as steel
Make me strong and tender
Take away my fears
And won't You give me holy insight, Lord
And wash my eyes with tears

Break this heart
Let it be open
I know it is no good
Till all the bitterness is gone
Make my life
A vessel that’s broken
So I can someday help
The one who falls

So I came someday help
The one who falls
