This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

Best Christmas Present Ever
Day 59: This is not just another cute/sweet kitty picture. This is documentation. Yesterday evening, Merry gave me the best Christmas present I could have hoped for. I had fallen asleep in my chair, little-old-lady style, and was waked up by my kid stepping from his kitty perch onto the arm. He paused for a second, and then without any nudges or coercion on my part, eased his way onto my lap. He made a half-turn, then laid down in the crook of the opposite arm to his usual position, and began purring. A few minutes later, he was sleeping soundly and stayed that way for over an hour. This marked the first time he has ever initiated lap-sitting on his own. It doesn't get any better than that.
