15 years ago we took in a stray black kitten found in a hotel parking lot in Dallas. We named him Zorro for some early swipes, but he calmed down. He loved our children and they loved him. Zorro passed this morning and I can’t comprehend not missing him.

My daughter will be at a sleepover and my wife has a mom’s night. That means boys night for the 6yo, 1.5yo, and I. So do we do Predator or Robocop?

Just realized that between my wife and I we have 5 work trips, an annual company audit, and the kids’ spring break in March. Pray that I make it to April.
