Baby shower for my friend

I Hosted a baby shower recently for my friend Cecily, she is the daughter of my best friend of 20 years Desley whom we lost to breast cancer last year,In our sadness we have become good friends and i know Desley would be so happy that Cecily is having a baby.She already has Caleb who is the sweetest smartest funniest little 5 year old ever.he loves to check my fairy teapot for a surprise.
The shower went off really well and everyone had a good time especially cecily who so deserves it after all she has been through. I know in spirit we share the day with Des (the bravest never give up person i have ever known)

The story of Our Sweet Avalon Darkmoon

with a sweet nature,She never meows sometimes she trills and she has webbed paws,
She can be a real goofball and is very quick for a big cat.We suspect she may be at least part Maine coon.Of course our first girl Emmilou has never been thrilled at the new arrival even so
many years on but they have agreed to disagree and i think enjoy their little rivalry.

Sad day poem i wrote

I have been asked about the little room below it is actually a walk in plate pantry i had built a few years ago when we renovated.I put a french door on it so you could see all the shelves
and there is a light inside.Its very handy you walk in and can choose what you want.
Its the size of a walk in pantry.I got it built accross the corner maximising space.Its also great to hide in and scare the cats lol freaks them right out,
