This morning we were getting ready for school and Saiya had her little purple monkey in her hands. I grabbed her jacket (because its FREEZING outside) and told her to put it on. I was holding her jacket while she slipped one hand into it. When it came to her other hand, she had to drop the monkey in order to slide her fist into the sleeve. Rhaina was standing in the kitchen watching, waiting, prowling, anxious for Saiya to put her beloved monkey down. Unthinking, she dropped the monkey on the floor to slide her hand into the jacket and immediately realized what she did as Rhaina inched closer to it. She held up her hand and said, "No! Rhaina! Go Way!" Shaking her hand vigorously at the poor dog. Before Rhaina had the chance to grab at the monkey, I scooped it up and tucked it under my arm.
