Good morning my precious friend,
How I just love this sweet painting you posted and the little expression; how true it is...we have the power and gift to enter into another's imagination and bless them with beauty. You do that for me my dearest! I am so blessed to have known you and your world...a place I love to go anytime whether I am at rest, or in need of a refuge. Thank you for coming and placing a crown on my head dear one; friends like you and other sweet people are really what I live for. You are all important to me! How is our little moussie doing? We so enjoyed the harvest dinner, but the Tea Rat and the gang are still stuck in Nowhere, but are actually enjoying it! However, without Miss M. and her entourage, it isn't the same! And yes, there is another rat in my household and he is a scribe rat; he writes on heavy, earthly matters and holds a Th.D; a docorat in teaology!!!!! If you want an intellectual challenge, pay him a visit! Have a splendid day my dearest. Anita

Yes, Rattus Scribus enjoys his tea! He is the twin of our illustrious Tea Rat and like I said, holds a Th.D. Unlike our Tea Rat however, he is a scribe in political and social matters; the Tea Rat is a fantasy writer as we well know! We all live under the same roof; the Tea Rat sits on my shoulder while Rattus sits on my husband's shoulder, whispering words of "wisdom" from his perch!

Enjoy your day dear one! Anita
