When I was with my first family, this one day I decided to do something silly. I pretended I couldn’t eat when they were nearby.
They thought I was hilarious and quirky.
What could I do but continue the game?
So I continued to eat in privacy.
But when I met my new family, I knew I had a fresh start available to me. I started eating while they ate, just a couple feet from their table.
And on date night, when BFF and Mama ate together at the couch, I brought a mouthful of food into the room. I wanted to be a part of their romantic evening!
Life is much better since I stopped pretending. They think I’m adorable and sweet and that I trust them. That makes me happy!
