you loomed up slowly on the horizon

Dear Prosper,

I am aware that you think there are three appropriate things for you to do while I am sleeping.  These are, 1. chew on any part of me, especially arms or hair, which you can get a hold of, out of spite for missing Kit; 2. sleep on top of my trachea; and 3. sleep sweetly curled next to my pillow.  Please be advised that only 3 is appropriate and it is why you keep being removed from my person with loud ‘No!’s, not because I am a Mean Mommy.

Much love,

Your mean kitten mommy
