Sam and Z

A little while ago, Sam had a really bad night sleeping. She just couldn’t fall asleep. It was after 10:00 p.m. and she was still awake. I had been in her room with her for hours, but she was still up, and I was getting very frustrated. Mark tried to get her to sleep too with no success. He told me that it wasn’t that Sam was being difficult, she really was trying to fall alseep, he could tell, but she wouldn’t nod off. Eventually, she wound up in our bed. We figured maybe a change of scenery would do the trick. Well, it didn’t, not at first. It was way past all of our bedtimes and Zephyr came to bed, as she always does. Mark told Sam that if she laid very still with Zephyr, and just quietly stretched out one hand, Zephyr might lay her paw on Sam’s hand.
As you can see, Sam was beyond thrilled that Zephyr gave her this honor of “holding paws”. We were thrilled too. Sam loves Zephyr so much, that it is good to see Z return some of the love. 🙂
