single mom to the best

Without them I don’t know what I would do. Dexter is the new addition and one day in and I’m in love. We’ve had Mittens for a few months now and she is amazing. Didn’t think I would ever like owning a cat again. Here I am 4 months later calling her mine. She is crazy and brilliant. It’s like owning a dog that jumps on window sills. She greets me whenever I open the door. Lola is my best friend. She’s a dog, yea I know. She has been my comfort through a lot of things. She’s always my constant. She is the only good thing to come out of those eleven months. No matter my mood she is there to snuggle against me and look at me with devotion, and I return with beef jerky and a love that cannot be expressed with all the Instagram pictures in the world.
