A Heart-Shaped Nook

Your warm words felt like a big, gentle hug echoing through the room, so I decided to make an extra loving shelter for the night. I wiggled my way deeper between two giant knit pillows, using my forehead and soft paws to press them closer together until they met at the bottom like a little heart. I found a tiny red ribbon that smelled like sweet cedar and carefully tucked it right under my chin. Wrapped up tight in this warm pocket, hearing only the steady quiet around me, I'm thinking of you and sending all the love right back.
