Snuggly Behavior

Mandy has adapted a strange-but-welcome new behavior. Every day for the past week, she has found both Elway and I during nap time and proceeded to wake us up. However rather than picking us up or wanting to play games, Mandy has simply sat down next to us and loved us. What a nice way to wake up! I let Mandy scratch my head and behind my ears, and upon occasion even my tummy. While she loves us, she also verbally admires our handsome stature. She compliments me on my pretty eyes and Elway on his cute face. She tells us how sweet we are and these snuggle times are simply delightful. I am not sure what brought this peculiar behavior on but since Mandy has started this extraordinary habit, I have allowed her to love me throughout the rest of the day, just so she knows these lovely wake-up calls are enjoyed.

Sam has not partaken in these new enjoyable daily routines. Instead, he has picked up a mean streak. Last night, Elway noticed that Mandy’s big tub outfit had fallen on the rain room floor. It startled him at first, and he had to inspect it to make sure it was safe. Sam opened the door to the rain room and picked up the fallen clothing article. Elway jumped in the rain room to make sure everything was in its proper place. After a few minutes, I joined Elway in the rain room. Do you know what Sam did? He joined us in the rain room. Elway quickly jumped out but I was not quick enough and Sam closed the door. I guess he wanted to make sure I was clean since I had just used the box, but I completely freaked out. Mandy came in and rescued me. She picked me up and loved me while Sam checked me over to make sure I was clean. It was humiliating. I let Sam go to bed while I was angry at him. Mandy lured me out of my pouting state by waking up Red Lightening Bug. We played together for a little while before Red Lightening Bug and Mandy went to sleep.

Well, that is all that I have to report for now.
