Hi! It's Zoe. Last Friday it rained while I was at school, and when we went outside to get picked up it had stopped raining. One of the teachers asked some of us if we wanted a kitten. First, I thought he was joking, but then he lead us to a small, wet kitten that he had found and had put in a dry place to shelter it from the rain. When my parents arrived to pick me up I asked them if we could take it home and care for it. They said yes! I was so happy! 

When we got home, my daddy and I came up with the perfect name for the kitten, Raindrop, because she is small and she was found shortly after it had rained. We put Raindrop in my mommy's bathroom because it is the safest place to keep her. With this done, we went to the closest pet store and got her a tiny baby bottle made for kittens and kitten baby formula to feed her.

At the pet store, we learned how to take care of her. She has to be fed eight times a day or every three hours! This included during the night. When they told us this I knew it was going to take more work than I expected to take care of Raindrop. 
When we got home from the pet store, I fed Raindrop the kitten formula. She was so hungry. After she had enough milk, we had to burp her just like a baby. It was so cute. She fell asleep on my daddy's shoulder. (see the picture below)

Soon after we fed her, we made her a little bed with a heating blanket underneath a towel, to keep her warm, she feel asleep immediately, while my mommy sang "Raindrops Are Falling On My Head" to her.

Later, I made her a play house with cardboard and hot glue, making improvements here and there, until I had a finished product that she loves! (watch the video below with her in the playhouse)

I have fun playing with Raindrop, and I've learned many interesting things with this experience. But most importantly, we hope to find Raindrop a nice and loving home soon. Bye!  

Hi! It's Zoe. Last weekend I got glasses. They have thick red frames with something called cat eyes design because of their slanted sides. It was interesting to see the world in a whole new way.

At first, I thought I didn't need glasses because I was so used to seeing blurry and I thought it was how people saw the world. But over time my vision started to get worse and we went to see the optometrist (a fancy word for eye doctor).

At the optician's  office, I had to go through many tests to see how bad my eyesight was and find out if I needed glasses. the doctor said my left eye was a "1" and my right eye was a "2", meaning I had poor eyesight! It was funny because my brother had his eyes checked the same day and he has 20/20 vision, that means perfect eyesight. The optometrist prescribed glasses and my mommy and daddy helped me find a pair that I liked.

When we got home I quickly put on the glasses and saw everything in such detail! I could see every leaf on every tree and every single blade of grass. It was a wonderful experience.

On the first day of school, I was a bit nervous about what people would think about my new glasses, but people said that they thought they were nice, or the glasses looked good on me. I was relieved they thought these things.

So, if you ever get glasses, don't be afraid about what people are going think. Enjoy how wonderful the world will look when you can see everything clearly. It might be better than you expect. Bye!
