Doggy I (our kitty)

 Elisha loves animals of any kind so much, she is always wanting to touch doggies when she sees them and tries to catch all the neighbor cats so I finally broke down and got her one of her own. I think I talked myself out of it a million times in 24 hours but then I decided that she needs a little friend and that I dont want her to be silly about animals like I am, I want to encourage her individuality and love for different things. When we got to my friends house to pick up the kitty Elisha was so thrilled she did a little dance. the car ride home she held the kitty and talked to it. I asked her what she wanted to name kitty and she says "hmmm I, Doggy I"
she has said her name is E I for awhile now that she is learning to spell her name.
She did not let the kitty out of her sight or grip until they both passed out. The little kitty being a stinker kept sneaking in and cuddling up with Elisha, I kept moving it back to its bed and finally it figured out it was not worth the effort to try anymore and stayed in its bed.
I really worried about how I would handle a cat, I knew Elisha would be great but once I saw her reaction to her very own kitty and how helpful she was with it and how much she already loves the little fur ball I have realized it is worth it. Seeing her smile and hearing her giggle and play makes my day.
I love my little Elisha and her big heart.
