Maranie = Mommy

A journey into every new unknown of motherhood.

Sometimes Veronica has a slightly different take on life than the rest of us. Case in point:

A stray tomcat has been hanging about our door, and we've fed him once. He's quite friendly and Veronica is absolutely beside herself when he arrives. So yesterday morning, I ask her what she'd like to name the kitty. And she said:

"I wanna call him Person, 'cas he doesn't know what he is!" And then giggled at the hilarity of such a thought.

Let that one roll around your head for a few minutes...pretty complex, isn't it? She did acknowledge a few minutes later that calling him Person "could be complicated." Like I said, a slightly different take on things than the rest of us, for sure. She wouldn't be my Veronica if she didn't.

    Hi Maranie,

    You do realize that if you feed the stray, it will be yours forever? give my sweetie a hug from me and tell her happy Valentine's day a little late from me. I was in Detroit over the past week and didn't get any Valentine wishes out. Hugs and kisses from Deb

    Hi Maranie, thanks for feeling my female pain. If I ever get wind of a Metformin-side effect-relief product, I'll send it your way.

    Very best,
    Ms. PCOS

    PS I think I may just need to meet this clever Veronica of yours!
