Wordy Wednesday - Big News

Well, kitties, I have some big news that I couldn't tell you before today.

Mommy wasn't in Helen alone. Mommy was with the ex-Almost Dad. Except he's not an ex anymore.

How did that happen? You may well ask, considering the very sad and upset post I made about the Almost Dad back in August of last year. You may remember, he left mommy out of the blue. And the reasons mommy assumed he had for leaving were spot on. (Mommy knows Almost Dad and his family pretty well.) Anyway, while he was gone mommy started her classes again and went to a Braves baseball game and helped me blog and kept living her life and trying to not miss him or keep hurting over the whole thing. And then one Friday afternoon she left work and there he was waiting for her next to her car in the parking lot, and instead of driving away and ignoring him she let him talk to her. To make a long story short, Almost Dad realized that what he and mommy and we furry babies had was too good to lose over anything else in the entire world, and that he was going to do anything and everything he could to get it all back and make it work. So mommy gave him one more chance, because even though he hurt her she still loved him and missed him - and because Ivy was driving her crazy with the crying. (Ivy even started to lose her pretty furs!)

So Almost Dad came back into our lives. (And Ivy's fur grew back and her crying stopped.)

And on Valentine's Day, Mommy and Almost Dad went to Helen to celebrate.


And at Helen, Almost Dad asked mommy if he could be our Forever Dad. And she said yes.


I suppose this just proves, kitties, that love can conquer all and that sometimes happy endings come even when you think there is no hope for it. Mommy is very glad she took the chance and trusted Almost Dad to be the man she knew he could be. We are all very happy, especially Ivy.

I couldn't share the news before today because Almost Dad had to break the news to his family. They are not happy, but maybe that will change. But even if it doesn't, we are happy and excited enough for everyone.

Congratulations! That is very very good news. We're glad Ivy is expecially happy too. purrrrrrrrrs

We're sure that as long as your Almost Dad always puts your mommy and you furries first, things will be fine with his family. Your mommy should draw those lines early!!

Mommy likes the bling he picked out. Nice. I'd like to whap it off the dresser!

Tybalt, that is the most exciting news for your Mommy and you kitties ... our Momma is even leaky eyed with joy over it! Sometimes guys are just wimps and give in to things they shouldn't, but at least in your Almost Dad's case, he figured out what his priorities were, and for that he will have true happiness! Please tell them concatulations on their engagement from us and Momma!

Congratulations to your Mommy and AD :-D That's wonderful news!!

As long as he puts all of you first, and doesn't allow them to say anything bad, it'll be ok. This is not about their happiness, but about his and Mommy's and their future together :-)
