Lolli's Birth Story (The Karis Version)

 by: Karis DeLong


  This is my version of Lolli's birth story:

    I woke up around seven on May 11, 2021 hearing my mom and sister talking outside my room. I heard my mom run into the garage and yell something around the lines of "Karlie, the kittens are here!!!!". My cat had been pregnant for a while and was past her due date. I waited a second for confirmation that I had heard aright and then jumped out of bed and ran to the garage as fast as I could.

    My mom was picking up a dark kitten from the cold hard floor and was placing it on the bed pictured below. We were desperately scared that Lolli had abandoned them or something but turns out she had gone into labor again just after she had finished cleaning the first one. 

    Mamma put Lolli and the other kitten in the bed and my cat started licking them and purring. Hardly had she started then another kitten came. Lolli was so busy with the others she didn't even notice! My mom had to wipe down the kitten's nose and mouth so it could breath. Then it began to cry and Lolli heard it and rescued it. The little ones were all up by then except Alyssa who was at Nina's. Lolli had another kitten and then another.

    This was very exciting and we were so happy because we had expected only a few kittens if any because it was her first litter and Mamma's cat's first litter had been a miscarriage.

A Fun Birthday Party

  Saturday, May 1, 2021 From the desk of Karlie DeLong Our friend Emma Gay turned 13 this year, and she invited Karis and I to her party. We were going to go bowling and then go back to her house, but there was a tournament going on, so we just went back for a playdate. The other guests were Zoe Meador, Aubrey Ferguson, and Lilli Farnsworth. We played some games and then got dressed up for a really fancy dinner. Emma's parents dressed up as our waiter and waitress. We pretended that we were in the 1700's. It was so fun!

Random Ice Day

 We had a random winter storm and the girls were able to be out of school!  We forgot to take many pictures, but Karis used the time to re-organize her bookshelves.  Lolli decided that her legs made a nice pillow for a nap!  Abbi and Susanna were the only ones brave enough to try to go sledding on the ice but they had a lot of fun!

9 Poems

  May 29, 2021 Abigail DeLong I wrote nine poems about our pets. Here they are: Poem #1 Lolli and Cupcake were not friends when Lolli had her kittens. I was so happy, I sang a song while I jumped on the trampoline with Karlie and Susanna Delong. Lolli had her kittens, four, But suddenly, she had one more! Lolli has five kittens; they are so cute! They make me want to jump around the house and play a little flute. I am so proud of Lolli. She reminds me of Karis and Karlie! THE END Poem #2 One of the kitten's names is Taffy. Sometimes, she is very snappy. She was the third kitten born, but she cannot blow on a horn. She is a calico kitten, but she hasn't any mittens. Lolli is very proud, because sometimes, Taffy is loud. I love Taffy very much  because she is so fun to clutch! THE END Poem #3 One of the kitten's names is Truffles. He is sweet and loves to snuffle. He was the second kitten born,  but he is secretly a unicorn! With him, I like to cuddle, for he hasn...
