Margo.. POLO!

Get what I did there? It's a play on the Marco Polo game you play in the pool.. I'm so clever!

We're back from Kenya and I'm sad about it! I'm not too happy to be back in cold, cloudy Rotterdam with the neighbors above us being louder than a herd of elephants (I really know what that sounds like now!). It was the most humbling and moving experience that I've had in life so far. We did so many things, including going on safari, snorkeling, diving, holding reptiles, sailing, etc. It was such an unbelievable time and I miss being able to spend my entire day with Mic. I will elaborate on Kenya in a later post because I haven't uploaded pictures and it's something I want to do correctly and take my time.

I now have someone else to spend my day with: we got a new kitten! We're still deciding her name- I like Margo, Mic likes Delilah- but she's the cutest, naughtiest kitten in the world! She slept her entire first day and was so awake her first night. She loves to explore and at this very moment she's chasing her tail and biting it. She's obsessed with my hands and the yellow nail polish I'm wearing, as well as our computer. She wants to be near me all the time and if I leave the room and shut the door behind me she cries! It's the cutest sound. She's about 9 weeks old and extremely clever, quick and strong for such a tiny creature. I am absolutely smitten with her! She's sitting above my shoulder on the couch and earlier she fell asleep in my arms. She's a huge spaz, running all over the place, squeezing herself into various crevices and licking her privates like you wouldn't believe.

I'll try and upload Kenya pics and a post sometime this weekend! Miss and love you all!
