Sh'ma....... NOT an OUTSIDE CAT!!

when we first got Sh'ma and he was able to walk we took him outside in hopes that we could teach him to go outside with the dogs. NOPE cats if they don't want to go outside they don't go outside so we gave up on this thought and broke down and got a littler box.  but since the litter box Sh'ma wants nothing to do with going out side at all. everytime I take him outside just holding him he wants to go back inside even crying  to go back in. well today I was cleaning off the front portch (MUCH NEEDED) and I left the door open so I could keep an eye on the girls. Since Elijah wont go to far and Sh'ma is scared of outside I wasn't worried.  well look who wandered out....

It took him a bit but soon he was on the front portch

once Elijah came out on the portch Sh'ma started relaxing and playing on the portch even playing with Elijah.
after playing with Elijah he rolled around on the portch making himself quite messy

when it was time to come inside he was ready.....

Fun Outing for Sh'ma

I figured he is cute and why not use what we have!!  the girls will still be doing the regular homeschool but on Wednesday ( or this week Monday and wednesday) we will be working on our kitten Notebook. I don't want to disrupt  the flow of the Weaver so on Lapbook days we will Not be doing weaver and we will be doing different activities so Weaver not gone just not coming out on Notebook and lapbook days. also added back in to our lives is the Piano..... the girls were having no inclination to practice so I put it away but they asked for it back so it is back!!! they will be allowed 15 min practice 5 min play time on it if they get all there studies and chores done.  the Memory Verse this week is STILL ( 2nd week) Jermiah 29:11-13.  this means that this is how the home school schedule looks for tomorrow

Update on Sh'ma

Yesterday Sh'ma's brother died. we don't know why we suspect that he got to hot. So sad, he looked perfertly healthy the day before, it just shows who is control.  If Sh'ma, and by the grace of Elohim he wil, he will be the only one from the litter. 

and on a side note on the kitten, Elijah has attopted him he loves him. which is good. 

Miracle Cat..... Sh'ma

Wednesday morning Sh'ma didn't sound right, I didn't know quite to think about it all. He was doing fine in a few hours or  so didn't think anything of it. we went on with our day feeding him on time, By  7:30 he wasn't doing good. By 9 Joe and I were just about certain that the kitten wasn't going to make it and we we prepared the kids and ourselves that the Kitten was going to die...... talk about Heartbreaking. Katie and Tyna was a wreak and so was mom and dad.  Joe just looked at me and said Half joking "shame on you for making me like that kitten." I couldn't blame him for that cause I was thinking I shouldn't have brought him home if he was going to die. I called the people who we took the kitten from and told them..... they took it on themselves to tell everyone in  the church that night. ( Joe and I weren't there I was fighting 2 day of a sinus infection. )  and they prayed for my girls and the kitten. I also posted on facebook asking for prayer for the kitten, my girls and for myself.  I even looked on line for kittens in the paper so if this kitten died I had a back up plan to make this a bit easier on my girls. 

I stayed up that night with Sh'ma not wanting him to be alone and making sure he knew he was loved at least. Tyna and Kat slept on the couch and I slept on my grandma's chair. Got everyone ready for bed even if we were all upset and thinking no one was going to get any sleep that night. tried again to feed the kitten with NO LUCK.  he wasn't even swallowing and everytime I picked him up he CRIED out in pain. I was loosing it. asking GOD to not let him suffer. Tyna and Kat were PRAYING FOR HIM NOT TO DIE!!! about Midnight I went and checked the cat and it was like life and been renewed in him. his once lifeless body seemed to be changed back. I got him to eat and he was starving. I layed him back down  still checking on him every hour.  It truly was a miracle he was FINE and by morning almost back to normal. 

Just shows me again that GOD hears the prayers of my 2 precious little girls. 

today Sh'ma is as loud as ever earning his name of Sh'ma which means to hear and do!! he also Got to go visit  his Brother which his brother looks like 2 weeks older than him. His brother has his eyes open already, and is already lazy ( wink) deffinitly not as active as our Sh'ma.  The kittens turned 1 week on Wednesday.

we Praise YAH for our blessing of our little Miracle Cat. we continue to pray for his health.

Sh'ma Yisrael....... an answer to prayer

 
All I can say is that GOD listens to the prayers of children.

Katie has been praying ( I thought Foolishly) for at least 5 years. and this week that prayer was answered in the only way that it could be. we rescued this little one when his mom pushed him away after she lost 2 other kittens and only had enough milk for 1 kitten.  

the owners of the momma cat didn't want to feed the kitten so I told them I would. And that is the whole story..... boring really. 

now there are some that are going to be on here worrying about my allergies and I am aware of the allergies and I am aware that we may not be able to keep the kitten when it is weened and I have made the kids aware. I also will be taking steps to cut the allergies  with the cat and we will try that first and when my parents come for a visit I have already worked out a cat sitter for a week for the their visits and cleaning before. should be ok. 

This was sure not my plan to take and nurse a kitten but I made the mistake of saying never and always, always God laughs at me. 

SO because of the way that we got him and him being a answer to a prayer Katie decided to name a name of a Jewish blessing Sh'ma.  The sh'ma is a blessing that says Hear O Israel the LORD our GOD the LORD is one!! blessed be His glorious kingdom Forever and ever. You should love the LORD your God  with all your heart and with all your soul. and you should love your neighbor as yourself.  

Since the next word in the blessing is Yisrael that is his middle name also Israel being God's holy land and that God will save Israel they figured that  he will live.  they pray for him every morning and night as well.

which so far there prayers are being heard he is gaining weight and is very strong.
