For my Mancat Dexter, with love...

Today is me and my special love, ginger Mancat Dexter's first love anniversary! I've been looking forward to this day for what feels like forever! Oh, D, a year ago when I confessed all my loves to you, I knew you were the best Mancat on all the Interwebs. You send me postcards and photos and make me feel so loved. Ladies, find yourselves one like Dexter, but paws off! He's mine! And then, *SQUEEEE* he sent me presents for our special day!

Dexter included a love letter. With purple violets on it! How I love these special notes! Here I am reading bits of it to baby sister Viola who Just.Does.Not.Get.It.

What? You want to hear what it says? *blush* Sorry, that's private! MOL!

Now, see all the pretty purple? Purple is my favorite color and D remembers this all the time! One of the many ways I feel his love.

So, naturally, I have to play with smooth out some of that pretty purple crinkly paper because, well,... it's purple and it's all the way from my sweetheart Dexter!

Finally, it was time to get down to opening D's gifts. Such good smells! So good, I had to nom on one or two a little. I hope you don't mind, D. The whiffies were incredible!

And then I nommed on a tasty mousie tail... that is two kinds of purple! D love, I hope you have a pretty purple mousie too because this is the best! Thank you!

And then even further, the best of the best, better than the jingle ball and the crinkly ball (both pretty purple!), better than the purple feather ball (that I had to lick and lick and lick for a while because... FEATHERS!), and even better than the extra special jar of nippy flowers, "Fleur de Nip" that I'll sprinkle on my bed at night so I'll dream of D, is my love's portrait in a purple frame! Oh, D! You are so handsome. It's like you're here with me! *happy tears*

Just to make him really seem like he's here beside me, I brought him a beautiful nippy pillow that Dexter's Mom made special for me! And it matches a beautiful kick stick! Thank you, Dexter's Mom!

Then, it was back to licking those feathers... but just for a minute or two. Because I have to gaze at my darling D some more. Isn't he dreamy?

Dexter, you've made me the happiest ginger princess in all the world. Even though you are far away, I feel you are here with me always. Sweetheart, thank you for making our first love anniversary so special.

Happy Anniversary, my love. I hope you like what I sent you to celebrate our loves. May your day be filled with happiness and joy!

All my purrs and loves,
your 'lil bean, Pia
