A brightly shining moon filled the night sky while Mom and Auntie retired to their bedrooms. Dukee followed Auntie while Mia trotted out into the front living room. She hopped up onto the table to have a few more bites of food before she went to bed with Mom.
After eating and getting a drink of water, she hopped down and pounced onto her favorite toy, Lamb-chop. She cuddled it up to her belly and kicked it away. She stretched out to reach for it, but then just laid there. Princess Mia was getting sleepy.
She heard Mom call her name so she sprung up to her feet, and picked up her Lamb-chop with her mouth. She trotted down the hall and through the family room with her head held high and Lamb-chop in her mouth. She went into her bedroom and gently put Lamb-chop down on the floor.
Mom was in the bathroom but had the door slightly open so Mia went inside. Mia jumped up onto the counter by the sink and looked at Mom. She had trained Mom to turn on the faucet when she looked at her so that Mia could get a drink of water. She licked a little water from the trickling stream, and then backed away. Mom knew then, that she could shut the water off.
Mia hopped down, ran back into her bedroom, and jumped up onto the bed. She and Mom have a new nightly ritual. Mia lets Mom shake hands and paw a few times as long as Mia receives some treats afterward. And those treats are really yummy, according to Mia.
After their little ritual, Mom turned on the television and Mia hopped down off the bed. Mia played with Lamb-chop for a little while on the floor, and then took her up onto the bed. Mia was a little sleepy again so she curled up at the end of the bed, put her head down, and closed her eyes.
