Arya

Adulthood upgrade

from a bean filled Christmas penguin

to a breathing in my ear, sniffing my neck, licking my face, stepping on the same face to wake me, black eye spot staring me down, matching polka dots sprinkled beneath white hairs.

I love the way she smells and her warmth when we cuddle. My sleeping partner, driving companion, fur covered friend with some serious dance moves.

Why would I get a dog and not make her my best friend?
