tiny in many ways except one

once upon a time.....ever was tiny.
her cry was tiny.
her body was tiny.
but her personality....it has never been tiny.

this video was taken at about 3 weeks old.

she was trying to crawl way back then.

this video was taken at about 4 weeks old.

that growling/crying thing....

she still does it but it is much louder and intense.  

in fact she's been doing a growling, gargling, crying,

scratching, thrashing combination lately that is quite maddening and hilarious at the same time.

it tends to happen late at night or before a nap when she is really tired but not ready to give up the fight and go to sleep.

we really love our wild animal so much.  it amazes me when i look back at these videos and see she had that feisty thing about her even then.

p.s. i miss her being tiny so much it actually hurts.  i don't think i was able to fully understand or appreciate that time of her life and now....i miss it something fierce.
