What a fun story about family making a special occasion for a child and her pets. A fun contest entry. Good luck in the contest.

good story and memory. How neat that you could read before starting school. I know this piece was about your memory, but I wish you'd added a bit more about growing up in a family with eleven siblings. I cannot imagine it. Your mother must have had the patience of Job.
Having an Auntie who spoiled you must have been fun, too. This was a good read.

    Thank you. I have written other stories about my family, you can find them in my profile. I just wrote this short piece for the remember contest where they asked for one specific memory. I intend to write more stories about my growing up day, they were wonderful.

What a beautiful memory! It is the simple pleasures that remain with us for our lifetimes. My favorite memories are of the time I spent with my grandmother, and I'm trying to give my grandchildren memories of their time spent with Grammy.
Thank you for sharing,

I've read at least four of these entries and this one is the best so far. Simple memories like these are the best stories to tell. They're full of life in a simpler day and time. There's a truth in all of these stories that I love!

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

I enjoyed reading this! It brought back great memories of having cats and kittens when I was a kid. Of course, I still have cats. Sometimes, it is the simple things in life that bring us the most joy. Thanks for sharing!

What a special and beautiful memory. In reading it, it brought a smile to my face. I am partial to cats. My big sister was a little tabby cat named Mitzi. I have four of my own right now, all rescues of one kind or another. Heartwarming... good luck in the contest...

What a wonderful memory, and what a creative big sister!
You have been blessed to have the kind of family that creates moments, not just living through them.
Well written, entertaining, and surprising all in one!

Hi,
That is quite a family
12 brothers and sisters.
Holy smoke. My friend came from
the same size family. He has relatives all over.
Your right about how memories of seemingly little things at the time can have a large influence on your life.
Best Regards,
K River

    Thank you. My whole family had a great sense of humor and we often did things of the cat party nature.
