there I was this afternoon doing dishes, getting ready to make some crazy cookies (Karen's 5 grain) when I feel this scratch scratch on my ankle. So I calmly look down to see Sophie there wanting me to pick her up...............

I looked down CALMLY after feeling a "scratch scratch" on my ankle? Four years ago if I felt a scratch scratch on my ankle wile doing dishes, after I peel myself off of the ceiling it would take 20 minutes to find what ever it was after I punted it across the room!!

These days I'm used to Sophie's scratch scratch to pick her up, as well as Benji and Crickets peckering when they want up!! Too funny.

Got to love them they have a way of taking over our lives.

She just wanted to get closer to the cookies.

AT least its just a scratch scratch! Mr Buddy goes right for the achilles! Afa tries to scale bare legs, and Alex bites toes!

That's funny! Do you also do the look-around now before taking a step?

So glad to hear your heart isn't into leaping to the ceiling & punting in reflex. Sophie would be so upset!

LOL Jim, it is funny how these feathered creatures change our lives. P.S. Blondie and Dagwood said that they want a cookie or four when your done baking.
