This is a photo dump/overview of Tess from December: The toughest thing Tess has probably gone through in her life so far happened this month when we had to put our cat, Zeke , to sleep . Tess took it very, very hard. I'm thankful I had the time in advance to purchase a little stuffed kitty for her. She took to the kitty right away and named him Zeke and was obsessed with carrying him everywhere (we're a month out now and she no longer carries him around or calls for him but does still sleep with him each night/nap). She cried for Zeke. She asked where he was. She even woke in her sleep that first night crying out for him. It was SO sad but also so sweet and so neat to see how even the youngest of people can recognize death and grieve for those they love. We had a night after church (which is already late for the kids to go to bed) where we couldn't find the dang stuffed cat anywhere! I joked a lot that the stuffed cat was more responsibility than the alive ...
