Last night X-man decided that he'd sleep with his door open for the very first time since he was out of crib. He said he likes the idea of the cats and dog coming to sleep with him.
So last night, as I tucked him in, Lily came into X-man's room, snuggled up to him on top of his feather down comforter and went to sleep with the sound of rain pelting against the windows at 8 p.m.
At 11:30 p.m., I went in to check on them. Lily was startled. She jumped up growled and barked at me defending her boy.
X-man never woke up.
I shushed her and her body became one big wiggly ball of black fluff. It read, "Oh, it's you! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"
Then she came in to sleep with me.
I should have taken a photo of them snuggled together. But somehow I thought a photo wouldn't have done the moment justice.
It's taken a few months. But dog and boy finally seem to be figuring out each other.
