After a late arrival on Friday night (1:00!!) Blaise surprised Mom, Dad and Grand Mare with a new trick- blowing bubbles! Papa Clark gifted us with a box of clothes that used to belong to Tommy and his siblings growing up- we all chuckled upon finding the dress Aunt Joanie brought back from Guatemala. (I'll save that pic for your wedding slideshow, Blaise.) Aunt Maggi did her fair share of holding Blaise. In his four months she has visited him four times- very impressive since she lives in CT! Grand Mare & Lar were excellent hosts. Blaise is hoping next time he visits he can hop on the Harley! (Just kidding, Mimi!)
As you can see, Blaise does not always have saintly behavior! Blaise's name, however, comes from a saint whose feast day we observe every February. St. Blaise is known for blessing throats, as he once saved a young boy choking on a fish bone. He also is the patron saint of wild animals. Perhaps he can intercede on behalf of our cat? We expect that our Blaise will have lots of spunk, just like the saint he's named after!
