A Very-Special Card From Reilly & Camille To...

Somewhat Offbeat: "International Kissing Day"? As For Reilly and Camille Re Kisses....


  1. Camille oddly enough likes kisses on the head, and she certainly likes giving kisses. Reilly, on the other hand, likes giving kisses and does not like receiving them—and she will even stop anyone who tries to give her a kiss by kissing him or her!
  2. Both Reilly and Camille like giving kisses even to the point of making it hard to breathe for the recipients of the kisses when they reach up to their faces and put their paws on their abdomens to give themselves boosts in order to be able to reach faces!
  3. Both of them will sometimes shun kisses in favor of belly rubs!
  4. "Momma" has actually goofed off with Reilly by using the word "Moo" when she wants kisses—and Reilly will gladly give kisses!
  5. Reilly likes giving kisses to anybody and everybody to whom she can give kisses, even if she's allowed to give them only air kisses or kisses on their hands!

A Belated Declaration Day Card....Wait; What?

Thomas Jefferson actually began drafting the Declaration of Independence on July 2, 1776. So...


Also, the Civil Rights Act passed just 12 years before the bicentennial of the Declaration's drafting!


PS "Momma" did the card this way because of the way that the picture of Reilly came out and because she accidentally somehow made the background black for a second. Then the background stayed black, and the original version of the card for Throwback Thursday is...a surprise until  Thursday!

#SentimentalSunday: By The Way, When Did Camille Actually Come Home? It Wasn't June 10th After All, Though.

First, an incidental note:

It was actually either June 6th or 7th of 2015. If it is the former, "Auntie Nicole" will (God willing) include that in her upcoming book, as for Camille Dominique to have come home on the anniversary of D-Day definitely fits into a "**** That I Can't Make Up" lists of co-incidences with significant historical events. If the latter (which it apparently was), as the photo album that "Auntie Nicole" shared about Camille's homecoming is dated June 7th , it'll still make the book given that the D-Day offensive lasted for days.

Second, the album that "Auntie Nicole" shared of Camille's homecoming:



Third, a few videos that "Auntie Nicole" recorded when Camille first came home:

#ThrowbackThursday: The Picture That Reilly Let "Momma" Take Last Night To Celebrate A Special Anniversary Today




Reilly also let "Momma" put the following caption for it when she sent it to Joyce, from whom she got Reillyⁱ—and she understood what she saying, like most puppies can understand what their human parents are saying:

"Hi, Joyce! Thank you for letting me meet Momma four years ago!"

 By the way, "Momma" recommends Ole Field Farm and made this recommendation on her own.

#WoofWednesday: Three Years Ago Today...







By the way, "Auntie Nicole" has yet to see even a picture of Tootsie, although she sees her in both Camille and Camille's maternal sister Shelby (and she's seen Poppie)! "Momma", though, has seen Apple and Oobie-Won (and it's still great that Apple is, like Reilly's "great-great-great-grandmother" Allen was, about two years older than her partner—since Apple was six and Oobie-Won four in 2015, and Reilly's Allen "great-great-grandparents" were born in June 1880 and September 1881, respectively—and that Apple even looks as a canine like Nana Allen did as a human!)

Bonus: Various pictures of Camille and of Camille and her twice-removed cousin Reilly ("Tootsie's grandmother is Apple's sister," Joyce explained.). The pictures were taken before or on July 30, 2015.

Happy Fourth Hebrew Birthday, Reilly!



Of course, the (lovable) brat used looking to see what "Mom-Mom" was doing at the last moment to avoid one picture. With the next picture, though, she couldn't avoid it and wasn't happy about it—she was too sleepy to turn away from the camera!


(Translation: "For a Joyous and Blessed Birthday!" and "For Yehovah to grant to you your heart's desires on your birthday!")

Two Gregorian Month Anniversaries For Reilly This Week

Reilly came home three years and five months ago, when she just a day shy of two months old (though she was eight weeks and four days old, meaning than old enough to come home):





Happy Month Homecoming Anniversary, and Happy Month Birthday, Reilly!

PS The picture above was taken at 3:40 AM on July 13, 2017—which goes to show one how patiently Reilly waits when "Momma"'s mental-illness flareups and other matters cause her to stay up late into even a Wednesday-into-Thursday-night!

("Momma" wanted to find a newer picture of Reilly snuggling her toy "Hippo", though, since she couldn't find one last night. By the way, Reilly actually came to her home away from home—"Momma" and Reilly are still hoping to make aliyah.)

Your Turn, Camille: Happy 2 ⅓-Gregorian-Year Birthday, Reilly!











You are very lucky that you didn't get hurt jumping from that height!


Cam, Reilly is still an alpha over you! (Puppies "kiss" in order to either show dominance, clean each other's teeth, or extract food or other items from each other's teeth.)



Camille gave Reilly a usual ear cleaning! 




She wanted "Hippo" here!

Happy 3 ⅓-Gregorian-Year Birthday, Reilly!

Despite that both Reilly and "Momma" are only getting older, and that "Momma" has a cold (or RSV), Reilly's bittersweet (or at-least-bittersweet-for-"Momma") milestone day was a good day (at least for Reilly. For "Momma", it wasn't an unusual day—החיים, זה מה זה לאותה.). Reilly even voluntarily rolled over to get her belly brushed with the electric toothbrush during grooming time when she heard, "Let's get your belly brushed!"
