Madd Max Gets Another Litter Of Kittens

 

Max knew Jess was picking them up in the afternoon, and asked for pictures.  Jess had told him she would take them when she got home.

Meet Green, Orange and Blue (they also had Pokemon names that the fam never referred to - Horsea, Poliwag and Squirtle).

This time the kids wrote a few clues for each other.

 

A Sam original.

"It's not so clean and not so neat, this is where unwanted refuge meets defeat.  One side rots forever, sealed in gloom, the other finds hope, a second bloom." 

A Max original.

"Under underwear where but not under where underwear."

Maddie woke up first so she could get into her basket before work.
