Farewell, Tommy

We miss the words…

Today, we lost a friend : gentle Tommy received his wings after a brief but courageous battle against an agressive cancer (we were talking about it here).

All our comforting thoughts go to #1 and to our pals from the Poupounette Gang.

Joy and sorrow

«Joy or sadness, tears are feelings that the heart fails to translate into words.» Unknown author


A few days ago, we received a packet from our friends at Poupounette Gang : #1 thought of us during his stay in Japan, and came back with treats and a small plate for us, and socks, a scarf, tea and post-it notes for Claire. Vidock and Violette have added a calendar with beautiful photos of Percheron horses taken by #1.


Thank you for your friendship and generosity, we were very touched !

We are all the more touched by the terrible news we heard on Friday : Tommy just had the diagnosis with a very aggressive form of cancer (angiosarcoma of the spleen). He has only a very short time left. If you haven’t already done so, please drop Tama, Bibi, Genji, Violette, Vidock, #1, and Tommy a word of comfort.

Are you ready for the holiday season ?

It’s the moment of the year that I prefer : the holiday season.

As we have friends all over the world, we have to get organized early enough so that they receive our cards or our presents in time. Claire helped us print the address labels for cards, and we have begun to write them.

We also carefully chose what we were going to put in the packages, but shhhhhht  ! It’s a surprise !

Are you already in the preparations for the holiday season too ?
