C-napping on the job ...

Turn your back for a few minutes and the helper goes to sleep. She has been helping at every step of tree-dom except for the actual setting the tree in the stand. That looked uncertain enough that she watched from the safety of the hallway. Smart kitty didn't get any sticky sap on her paws.

It appears that she may have been in charge of arranging the lights and retired without finishing. Sometimes efficient help is difficult to find, at Christmas.

Helpers deserve breaks too.

"Oh, how soft hum, break time, I'll take a nap."

That is priceless. Our little Higgins, grabs the bow on the present and runs away. It has become a game to him. The last time he did it, I used my " angry mommy voice" and said NO! He hasn't done it since.

That is such a sweet picture of a tired elf. She sleeps the sleep of the Innocent or maybe the Just? Maybe she just thinks it smells so darned good under there!

Sarah: That angry mommy voice is a dominant process with cats, too. I love the idea of Higgens understanding your tone intuitively. No yelling, just stern talk. Works great, no?

And I do have to say that the sleeping kitty chose her moment well. I like the shot, too.
