and send them out for birthdays and other occasions. Since I\u2019m unable to shop for cards at this time in person, I\u2019m considering creating cards and coming up with interesting quotes of my own or from online sources to send.

No, I found a kitten rescue site with 3 of the most adorable kittens who often frolic across the screen and tumble and\u2014oh my gosh, they\u2019re so cute.
