my best attempt at this whole domestic thing

bridging the gap between home-ec drop-out and domestic goddess
Yesterday was this guy’s 2nd birthday.
He’s not exactly an upgrade or new fixture to the house but his presence in the house is definitely worthy of mentioning on here, especially since we make such stark adjustments to our home for him and he doesn’t even pay rent, have a job, or pitch in with household chores. In fact, all he does is eat, sleep, and party up and down the stairs, jumps on our beds, demands attention, is sometimes rude to new guests and is always rude to little kids, and leaves his toys strewn about and doesn’t even care.
However! All he has to do is give us that ONE LOOK, plop right on top of our feet, squeeze his little head by your laptop and onto your keyboard, behave alarmingly well in a situation, wag his entire butt when we get home… and instantly our hearts melt like butter and all that other stuff goes out the window. The fact that he is a neurotic piece of work makes him all the more endearing. Maybe just to us, but still. :)
He is crazy and has issues but we really love him and couldn’t imagine life without him. Motzzi is the best mistake we ever made!
And now I’m wondering if my mom could substitute “she” for “he” and “Emily” for “Motzzi” and repeat everything verbatum. Yikes.
