Lilly Forgives


After 6 weeks, Lilly seems to finally be forgiving me for bringing home Davis. Yesterday we had a monumental cuddle and John documented it. In order to understand the significance of this cuddle you have to understand the modes of Lilly's affections.

Lilly's affection in ascending order:
  1. I don't know you, and so you won't be seeing me while you are here.
  2. You may look at me as I walk past.
  3. I will stay in the same room with you.
  4. You may pet me as I walk by or sit in one place.
  5. I will ask for a cuddle by laying on my back and rolling.
  6. Our cuddle will consist of me standing on you while you pet me and I rub my nose against something.
  7. #6 + I will kneed and lick your arm.
  8. #7 plus I will turn upside down (as seen in photo).
  9. I will sleep on or with you.
Lilly and I were at #9 (and she was only at #8 with John ever) until the baby came home and then she bumped me down to a #5 (grandma's and close friends are at #5). So you can see how excited I am to be back to a #8 and maybe #9 will come again.

  1. You should know that it took me 2.5 years to get to level 8.
