Cute Things!

[emily655321]

I've been inspired by Cute Overload.com. That, and Riesa's adorable baby donkey girl, French Toast.

Here is the place to post those pictures and stories you come across and copy onto your harddrive, but have no one to share them with! (Please tell me I'm not the only person who does that?)

Things like this:



Or these:







Yay! So, go to it! I'll start things off with a picture of my very special girl, Adele the cat. This is her "incredulous" face, the one she gives you when she thinks you might be up to no good. (She requires direct eye contact to reassure her that all is as it should be.)

nnno not cats again

they pretend to be cute because they're EVIL!!!

*goes back to her world of evilness before all this cuteness makes her feel suagry-sticky*

Quite true, but all this talk about evil cats & penguins means people usually forget that the true leader is the infernal bunny rabbit, you can be sitting there paying the creature no mind and suddenly its about to take a bite out of your ear.

On a more topic related note however, am I the only one who finds those pictures more ugly than cute. It's the same as when folk show you pictures of their snot nosed kids and what you really want to say is that they look pretty deformed, but the deranged parent is smiling like a lunatic and going on about how cute they are, so instead you smile politely and say they are the nicest looking rapscallions you've ever seen.

I'm torn between this feeling and the actual cuteness they try to inspire on me...
It's like that photographer that makes pics of children coming out of flowerd and such cos it's meant to be cute... how I detest her (Anne something...Geddes or stuff like that)

In defense of the kiddos, and very cute and heartwarming, too:


A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, “What does love mean?”

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

“When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.”
Rebecca- age 8

“When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.”
Billy - age 4

“Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.”
Karl - age 5

“Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.”
Chrissy - age 6

“Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.”
Terri - age 4

“Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.”
Danny - age 7

“Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss”
Emily - age 8

“Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.”
Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)

“If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate,”
Nikka - age 6
(we need a few million more Nikka’s on this planet)

“Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.”
Noelle - age 7

“Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.”
Tommy - age 6

“During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn’t scared anymore.”
Cindy - age 8

“My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don’t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.”
Clare - age 6

“Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.”
Elaine - age 5

“Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Brad Pitt.”
Chris - age 7

“Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.”
Mary Ann - age 4

“I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.”
Lauren - age 4

“When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.” (what an image)
Karen - age 7

“You really shouldn’t say ‘I love you’ unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.”
Jessica - age 8

And the final one — Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.

The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.

Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,

“Nothing, I just helped him cry”

That pic could get very uncute in a moment or two. Also: What were those kangaroos doing before the poor kid happened by?

[emily655321]

OMG puppy pile!

“Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.”

People need to be more like puppies. That would solve the problem of war, too; who could hurt each other when everyone's so soft and fluffy?

Some of those, I'm not sure whether to believe (that they weren't made up by adults). But the last one was very sweet.

Basil, I should have known "cute" wasn't safe in your hands.

What were those kangaroos doing before the poor kid happened by?

Um... whatever it was, I think they're still at it.

What a thoughtful kid. I know a lot of guys whose life would be made complete by that kind of room-service.

It's a special kind of cute.
