I made both Sophies their mums again this year.

It’s homecoming mum time in Texas!
A 16 year old girl standing in front of crepe Myrtle tree in front of a brick house. She is wearing a “homecoming mum” around her neck- a large maroon and white collection of braided ribbons and a feather boa. It reaches all the way to her feet. Ribbons include two with her name and her date’s name (both Sophie) and “HOCO 2025.”

I decided to check in on my owl box this morning and we’ve got baby squirrels!!
Black and white still shot from video from my owl box. The still shows two, possibly three baby squirrels curled up together with their mother’s tail partially covering them.

Here’s to a 2025 that’s kinder to all of us than 2024 was to a lot of us.

(Until we DNA tested Opal, we assumed that she was a lab/boxer mix. We learned she’s actually a redbone coonhound/American bully mix)
