Dear Leo,
Hi baby. You are really into climbing that ladder/stairs deal-i-bopper outside. It makes me really nervous, so I like to hang out near you. Naturally, as your sister with four paws and surrogate puppy mom it’s my duty to protect you. I think it really helps you when I lick your neck repeatedly until you giggle. Especially if I go for a tongue in the ear move, real fast and stealth like, “Sllllurrrrrp!” Most of the time to grown up humans don’t notice, but you do, obviously, and you start giggling. That’s my fav! I LOVE it! I love it so much that I race around the yard kicking up dirt in the dead grass patch where I peed and turned around a lot as a puppy. It’s now the launching pad, and provided great footing opportunity for you as you learned to walk. Anyways, I’m going to curl up on the couch and go do the sleepies. You have a nice night-night time too and we’ll play in our dreams.
Love you 5,000 slurps and more,
Kimmy
