Things about Sian that hit home, last night

[Siwsan]

6. The boys, especially Arthur, have been super affectionate, today

Right now, Madoc is mooching cheese off of me. That was always Sian's favorite bedtime activity. As soon as I walked towards the kitchen she'd come running, jump up on the counter and make sure I sliced enough to share with her. Same thing in the morning when I'd get a bagel ready to toast. She loved cream cheese so I'd give her just a tiny bit. When she finished, she'd sit in front of me and STARE me into submission, which means I'd swipe some cream cheese up on my finger and let her lick it clean.

A friend referred to Sian as a precious and funny little monkey butt. That does make me smile.

I still think I see her up in the bedroom hallway and just can't wrap my mind around what happened, and how fast she was gone. It's been a horrible Summer because of those damn fleas.
