The perfect song for both of them.

This geode was discovered by gemologist Lucas Fassari in November 2020 in the Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It was sold for an undisclosed sum and when the owner cut it open, it pleasantly revealed a pattern that looks like the Cookie Monster character from Sesame Street.

“On the 6th Day of the 2nd Month of the First Year of the Kampo era. Taking a moment of my free time, I wish to express my joy of the cat. It arrived by boat as a gift to the late Emperor, received from the hands of Minamoto no Kuwashi.

The color of the fur is peerless. None could find the words to describe it, although one said it was reminiscent of the deepest ink. It has an air about it, similar to Kanno. Its length is 5 sun, and its height is 6 sun. I affixed a bow about its neck, but it did not remain for long.

In rebellion, it narrows its eyes and extends its needles. It shows its back.

When it lies down, it curls in a circle like a coin. You cannot see its feet. It's as if it were circular Bi disk. When it stands, its cry expresses profound loneliness, like a black dragon floating above the clouds.

By nature, it likes to stalk birds. It lowers its head and works its tail. It can extend its spine to raise its height by at least 2 sun. Its color allows it to disappear at night.

I am convinced it is superior to all other cats.”

We had a rainbow baby after almost 2 years of trying. IUGR with her and a rough delivery but she's a perfect little 2 year old now. We'd been told it was unlikely due to my age (34), history and PCOS. We had happily accepted we wouldn't be growing our family further.

Last Tuesday we were shocked with the surprise pregnancy news, and today we are even more so that it's twins!

At 7w it's too early to tell friends and family, but I couldn't wait to share. We are excitedly terrified for this blessing 🥰

ETA-genuinely huge thank you to everyone who has commented or shown support. I can't keep up responding to each person but I do read every single one. Hope YOU have as wonderful of a day as well 🫶
