What’s that in tiger years?

Tiger Lilly turns 14 today. She could have had her birthday a couple of weeks sooner, but she tarried past her due date and our doctor finally had to induce. I think he offered chocolate. Despite her initial hesitancy to meet the world she has not been shy about getting out into it, whether it’s meeting the neighbors or traveling to China and Romania on missions trips.

Fourteen is an interesting time for her as each day brings new opportunities — and wardrobe. Camo BDUs one day, lacy camisoles the next, and she thinks it wouldn’t hurt to have a formal or two on hand for whatever might come up. It’s a time for looking back, considering one’s options and greeting the future with a smile.

Happy Birthday, Patience.

  1. Presumably that second “Mall Diva” comment was really Tiger Lilly??

    Cause I’m already confused enough by Diva’s poem without tossing in a Diva who is apparently talking to herself.

  2. *sigh* Yes, that 2nd one was TL. I’m not allergic to myself.

    And you were confused by my timeless prose?? Do you know how long it took me to come up with that masterpiece?

    Uncultured philistines.

  3. Kevin wasn’t confused by your timeless prose, but he might have been befuddled by your verse. For my part I’m not confused by either.

  4. timeless prose? befuddled verse?

    What are you blathering about?

    Last person that spoke to me like that still wears orthopedic shirts.

  5. I needs must respond forthwith to your villainous derogation. My orthopedic shirts are the height of style. I would posit further that those of Faith exceed even more admirably in this regard. Honte a toi!

  6. Haha! I know what that means!!

    I think I have some kudos to hand out:

    1 for Faith, for telling me what honte a toi means.

    1 for Ben, for speaking a foreign and primitive language (okay, maybe not primitive, maybe just snooty).

    And..let’s see…

    One for Kevin for using the word blathering.
