It’s open house day today for the cats and the critters cheerily explored the house then went to their fave corners for a nap. Jack, too was due for a nap but was too distracted to sleep. He pooped twice and I wanted to slip out to wash my hands.

I decided to try again shortly after he nipped my nipple and refused to nap. I got up and said, “Mommy will be back in 1 minute”. He smiled and stayed put till I returned. This is monumental as he’d never let me out of his sight before (unless someone else was around).
