boy + dog = love

For months, Miles has been fascinated with Felix - our lovable, hugable canine. Miles stares at him as he moves from room to room in the house, laughs for no reason when Felix is near, and smiles freely when the mutt is around.
Felix has always been nice enough to Miles, but has never taken an interest in him, until yesterday.
Picture this - boy and dog are both on the couch (with me, of course). Boy stares at dog (as usual). Dog stares back. Dog tries to lick boy (mom won't let him). Boy reaches for dog. Boy grabs dog's ear. Dog is happy that someone, anyone, is touching him. Boy and dog stare at each other and realize in an instant that this friendship might just be a win-win situation...

Oh that is just TOO sweet!!! It must be so fun to have an animal around to keep Miles company... they will, no doubt, be best buds for many years to come. SO SO sweet.
