Christmas Surprise | Sue Bentley
23 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
Molly is so excited to spend Christmas with her family. . . she can't wait for the snow, food, and presents! But Molly just can't seem to keep herself out of trouble. Luckily, she finds a distraction in Flame, the snow white kitten. With his magical help, it looks like Molly may get the best Christmas present ever!

5 weeks ago we adopted a gorgeous doggy called pumpkin. She was very skinny. She started putting on weight- great! She got a bit nippley so I took her to the vets. He said- phantom pregnancy, will be over in a few weeks. Today Pumpkin had 6 puppies… 😑🤦🏻‍♀️🤪 🐶 So there goes my December.

Alfoster So darn cute!👊 4mo

julesG Congratulations!? 4mo
dabbe Holy guacamole! They‘re all precious! Maybe time for a different vet? 😂😂😂 4mo
DebinHawaii Oh wow! What a surprise and how adorable! 😍 4mo
Tamra Oh, so cute! 😍 4mo
MicheleinPhilly Oh my! I mean, they‘re adorable but maybe what @dabbe said? 4mo
willaful As my husband's family doctor once said to him, “My how you've grown! I remember when I diagnosed you as a uterine tumor!“ 4mo
Ruthiella Agree with @dabbe , might be worth looking into a new practitioner! 😬😆 4mo
Jas16 Oh my goodness! Quite the surprise! 4mo
TheSpineView Now that is what I call a surprise! Cute though 4mo
Susanita I guess you have to name them all after phantoms? 4mo
Cupcake12 What a surprise! 💕 🐶 4mo
LeahBergen Omg!! 😱 Pumpkin must be feeling very lucky to have found you! 🥰🥰 4mo
Magpiegem @willaful 😂😂😂 that‘s equal parts hilarious and terrifying 4mo
Magpiegem @dabbe yup!!! To be fair to the vet she hid those pups very well and was bouncing around chasing her ball until the last day. I think it was quite a shock for her too!! 4mo
dabbe @Magpiegem I bet she's a great momma! 🤩🤣😍 4mo
willaful I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! 😁 4mo

Thanks again to @GraceZ95 for the awesome, thoughtful, early Christmas gifts! I decided to not celebrate this year so it was nice to know that you cared enough to spoil me with goodies anyway! 😆All the books and Brooklyn 99 stickers are perfect, the journal and handmade bookmarks are so beautiful 😍 the candy is almost gone, the stationary will definitely come in handy and the Hamilton mug is my new favorite!! I love #litsylove ❤💚

GraceZ95 You‘re so very welcome dear!! 💖💖 I‘m glad you loved everything! I also love that I knew NOTHING about 99 when I bought those so I didn‘t have the proper appreciation for the stickers that I do now, NINE NINE!! 🙌🏼🤣 3y
dainarmb An appreciation for 99, Hamilton AND stationary...did we just become best friends?! What an awesome gift bag- you killed it @GraceZ95 ! 3y
TheNeverendingTBR Love the hedgehog 😍 3y

CaliforniaCay @dainarmb you have good taste! Are you a fellow letter writer? Litsy has a lovely letter writing group I'm a part of if you're interested 🤗 3y
CaliforniaCay @TheNeverendingTBR right? I named him Button cuz he's just so darn cute 🤩 3y
dainarmb @CaliforniaCay I'm a writer, but never really fell into the habit of letters! 3y
CaliforniaCay @dainarmb nice! I'm a fellow (aspiring) writer myself. If you ever do decide to develop a letter writing habit, we'll be here for ya 😃 3y

My hubby checked our mailbox after we got home yesterday from a short road trip, and waiting for me was this surprise package! @UwannaPublishme I can‘t thank you enough for these lovely gifts! Perfect picks to start the New Year off on a positive note, and boy, do I need reminding. Life has been challenging lately, more so than usual. I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness and your friendship. 🥰💜🤗

UwannaPublishme Yay! So glad the package made it in time for the New Year, my dear friend! Wishing you more smiles and positive thoughts in 2020. Louise‘s calendar is one of my favorites. 🤗❤️❤️❤️ 4y

This is a review for a book I just finished that I borrowed from the website www.booklending.com. I‘m using this book to fill in the Free Space square on my #bookishbingo board because with a Free Space, you can read anything and this book didn‘t fulfill any of the other prompts on the board.

Who doesn't melt at the sight of kittens with jewel-toned eyes?? Bentley has written a dozen or so magic kitty 🐱 books; they're about 120 pages or so

#Froedrick photobombed my gifts from @Hooked_on_books . He can‘t resist sitting on anything spread on the floor, and I couldn‘t resist opening your gifts any longer! (The hubs said “what are you doing?” And I said “well, she opened mine already!”). Reveal in next post. 😊

Soubhiville @Yellowpigeon don‘t let that look fool you- he‘s the biggest clown ever. He‘ll do anything to get a reaction. A favorite game of his is to follow you into the bathroom and chase his tail in the bathtub while singing the song of his people. He knows it gets a laugh every time. 6y

What a nice surprise to go to the post office today and find this box from @Soubhiville waiting for me! Thank you so much! I can‘t wait until Christmas to open it. The fun part is I just happened to be mailing something to you today at my post office visit. 😉 Litsy is so cool!

Soubhiville That was insanely fast to go so far! Shipped Saturday! Happy holidays my friend! 6y
Soubhiville PS, waiting until Christmas is optional 😉. My husband and I aren‘t religious, so we celebrate “I love you in the wintertime.” And we open stuff whenever the mood strikes us, sometimes the 25th, sometimes not. 6y
JPeterson @Soubhiville I love that! My boyfriend and I do the same thing, and open up gifts on random days throughout December. 😊 6y
Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville Oooo, I like that idea! We aren‘t religious, either, but my BF likes tradition, so I‘ll likely wait. If I have a bad day before then, I‘ll sneak them open early. 😬 6y
Soubhiville 😊 🤞 for no bad days though! 6y
