I just had to share this!!! I have mentioned that my husband is crazy about Alf and he often asks,"Do you think she knows I love her?" Last night we were watching TV and he was holding her. She was standing on his chest looking at him and he smiled and asked Alf "What is going on inside that pretty dragon head of yours?" She stood there for a minute,walked up to his beard,touched it with her nose and proceeded to crawl up to his shoulder and snuggled into the side of his neck and went to sleep!!!! The look on my husbands face was Priceless. He looked like he had been given the best present in the world.
On the other hand,she also snuggled with me yesterday afternoon,it was warm here,low 70's,so I took Alf to wait with me for Timmy to come home.We hadn't been outside but a few minutes and our new neighbors started making a bunch of noise They're grading the land or something(we live anout 10 mins from town,yet out in the country,all around us is woods and the people next door just bought the land..........) anyway when the machinery started,(she was sitting in my hand with her 2 front feet wrapped anround my fingers) she tried to jump out of my hand toward my shoulder so I put her on my shoulder an she looked at me as if to say "Mommy that loud noise scared me!!" and nuzzled my neck,"Save me from the noise Mom!" We all love her and Freckles dearly.
