Matilda and Midnight Beyond.

Matilda follows me everywhere. She sleeps on my bed day and night, and she often calls and calls when I'm not in my room, for me to come to the room and be with her. If I leave the house she calls and calls. My mum pacifies her and she now settles down quickly. Her eyes often follow my every move. When I lift my keys she knows that sound, and she knows I am going out. There is resignation and she goes and puts herself to sleep somewhere. She notices everything. When my car pulls up in the driveway, and I put my keys in the front door to unlock it, she has jumped down off my bed watching to see if it's me. I suspect she fears abandonment.
Midnight is more of a back bencher. He still has his preference to be outside.

Matilda turned 11 years old on the 23rd of December 2016.
