Until a few weeks ago, Bandit would sleep with my daughter and Jeffrey with me. For some unknown reason, they switched. Bandit now sleeps with me. Every morning around 4:30 I wake up and just lie in bed, sort of meditating (or cursing another day of work ) before I get up at five. Bandit wakes up when I do and burrows UNDER the covers. He crawls under and rests his head on my stomach or in the crook of my arm. It's almost like he's saying "No, I don't want to get up! Don't turn on the light!" He sleeps on top of the covers until that time. I've never heard of a dog doing this. It's become our cuddle time, complete with all of his adorable sighs, grunts and snorts. I had to share this because I think it's so sweet. Jeffrey always wakes up giving big, wet kisses, (which I love) but this is such a more calming start to my day!
