Plus One

Yesterday our family grew by one little creature, already filling a big place in my heart. I was walking in the hutongs with a friend, when this little guy came over to me, purring and playing with no fear. And as it happened, the house in front was the home to his mother and the family who lived there told me I would be welcome to take the kitten home with me, that they were hoping to find a good home for him.

And so, after years of longing to have a cat, he really is here :)
