Even though we are continents apart, we have seen each other every year he and I existed. We have a special bond in that we both entered my Mummy’s life the same week – back in May 2011.
Mummy fell in love with Little Tyke from the moment she met him. With me, well, I think she was in shock! 🙂
The difference is because Little Tyke isn’t hers. He was with her for limited periods. When I entered her life, it was for good – no handing back to anyone!
This was us – the first day we all met on the 16th May, 2011 … guess who taught me how to chew the lead?I was eleven weeks old and Little Tyke was 9 months.
We spent quite a bit of time together during my first two months at home. We were very curious about each other. He would come and sit in my bed and looked at me.And I really did not mind sharing my bed.
We were both on all fours then – when there were still baby gates not so much for Little Tyke but for me.The next Summer time I saw Little Tyke, he was walking on two feet and I grew bigger too.
And we were a team – up to no good!
He came again the next year in September 2013. I was really happy to see him again.
He had grown taller again and also more cheeky!
He tried to sit on me and pulled my tail. I told him off in no uncertain terms. Even though he annoyed me I still enjoyed having him around.
It was a good 18 months after that before I saw him again this summer.Little Tyke is growing up and the next time I see him, he will be even taller. Soon we will have to stop calling him Little Tyke.
It was a summer of activities and time has flown by quickly. But in the time we had together, I think we have further bonded.
P.S. Georgie’s Fan Club – he’s a part of the mix … and Little Tyke makes Georgie happy with belly rubs.I hope it won’t be too long before I see you again, Little Tyke. Take good care.
May’s comment: Sasha and Darcy both came into my life at the same time but for very different reasons. I can’t love them both enough for what they’ve given me – a new lease of life, to love with every part of me – and to care till my heart breaks.But loving is also letting go. And while the void seems large the first hours since we said goodbye, I know this is what we have to do.
