I received tulips on March 8, but I don’t celebrate the day—it’s just another date for me. I didn’t even realize it was March 8 until the flowers arrived. March 8, Women’s Day, is a post-Soviet tradition, but it’s not something I particularly connect with. My husband knows I don’t need flowers on this day and appreciates that it’s the thought, not the date, that matters.
Anyway, I received a lot of tulips, and that brightened my day.
Today, I woke up to find all the tulips from the windowsill on the floor, knocked over by Marley, our mischievous cat.
I can’t help but laugh at his antics.
In the end, it’s not about the flowers or the date—it’s about the little moments, even if they involve a cat knocking things over. This made me smile.

I love my cat… but he’s never done that before! I bet they were just too heavy and dropped off.

Pretty flowers. And I must say, Marley looks very satisfied with himself 🙂

I started to think it wasn’t Marley after all. The vase was still lying on the windowsill, so maybe the flowers were just too heavy and tipped over on their own. 😊 But he came running when I couldn’t hide my surprise and seemed a bit guilty 🙂
