Luna’s Happy Birthday Present to Nanna
My mom’s birthday is on the 23rd.
Last year around this time, she was here helping me while I was healing. That was also the moment she was formally introduced to Luna.
Not a casual “oh hi, that’s the dog” introduction either.
This was a full onboarding.
Snoring.
Following.
Judging.
Guarding the bathroom like it was Fort Knox.
And staring into your soul while you eat.
At some point during that visit, Luna quietly decided:
“This human is now family.”
No paperwork.
No discussion.
Just vibes.
So naturally, I started thinking… if Luna could get my mom a birthday gift, what would it be?
Flowers?
No. Too fragile.
Chocolate?
Poison. Rookie mistake.
A card?
She can’t read and would eat it out of spite.
No… if Luna were in charge of gift-giving, it would be something meaningful. Something heartfelt. Something that says “I love you and you are important to me.”
Which means it would absolutely, without question, be a wrapped squirrel.
Not alive.
Not moving.
Just… respectfully presented.
Probably placed gently on the floor.
Maybe with a little head tilt like,
“I worked really hard on this. You’re welcome.”
And you’d have to react correctly.
Because this is important.
You don’t scream.
You don’t cry.
You don’t ask follow-up questions.
You say:
“Oh wow… thank you, Luna.”
Because in her mind, this isn’t chaos.
This is love.
This is legacy.
This is family tradition.
So happy early birthday, Mom.
You survived the introduction.
You’re officially one of us now.
Please note: no squirrels were harmed in the making of this post.
Probably.
