Double lucky eight - Miya is eight! 😱 happy birthday to my brain dog!
This time last year, she was pretty ambivalent about our new addition. Since then, Miya has spent her year focused on experiencing a bunch of firsts with the growing boy. He found his first word (“DOG!!!” I was beyond thrilled, he truly is my son 🥺), threw his first ball for fetch, played his first game of tug with Miya. I’m happy to say that their relationship has changed for the better!
He’s taken his first steps and learnt to use his newfound balance to step carefully around her when she’s lying on the floor in his way. He voluntarily plants kisses on her while I have to persistently ASK him to kiss me, and he pats her gently but he smacks me while giggling. He starts saying her name even before he’s gotten home from school (“Mya mya! Mya mya!”) and looks for her before he looks for me. Meanwhile, she looks for him when we’re out playing fetch, and she sticks close to where he is.
But of course, it isn’t all roses….she’s corrected him like a puppy and has definitely bowled him over while doing her tricks, not understanding that he’s still working on his balance 😅 it’s resulted in tears and a bump or two, but he always forgives her with a pat and a treat.
As for the rest of us, Miya is only two years away from the ten years old that Kiyo was when Miya joined us, and I’m definitely feeling the itch to go back to the double dog life. Let’s see what adventures the next year takes us on together…and who knows, maybe one day we will be able to add an extra set of paw prints to our new family footprint art!
