My girl is a funny little animal. Last week I brought some snack crackers to bed.( I like to eat things in bed that make a lot of crumbs.) Satu grabbed as many as she could in her little fists and ran off with them down the hallway. It looked like this.
She can fold up like a little mouse and not be seen, she can look at you like a cat and she can dance like a blue footed boobie. Every day I feel like I love her more and more. Even though she has all of these little animal things that she does, I think I may be more wild than she is . She just knows all of the world's creatures really well, especially me.
She knows when I need chocolate and when I need pats to make me feel better. Satu can always say just the right thing, or find just the right time to make me laugh when I need it. I hope that I do the same for her even though I don't have the same understanding of the world that she does.
Satu has the sweet, good-natured innocence of a quiet little forest creature, yet all of the fury of a lion when she wants to. She is loyal and kind and honest. I hope that we will have this little burrow together for years and years.
