I asked Nancy a few more questions about Kiara recently. She touched in with Kiara a bit today.

My questions will be in bold, followed by Nancy's reply.

-How does she feel about Mufasa now? Has she gotten used to him?

"mufusa does not "annoy" her as much now but it seems that mufusa is getting more attention now....it is not that she is jealous but she feels a bit left out. she does not have the confidence to realize that people can love other animals and still love her just as much."

I guess Kiara made a decision for me tomorrow. I was debating on who to bring to the beach with me - both Kiara and Mufasa or just one of them. So, tomorrow will be Kiki and my day.

Sometimes she acts afraid of someone she previously mentioned as being a good person - why is that? (I was referring to my dad, but did not tell Nancy that. He called Kiara today, in a normal voice as he always talks to her, and she would not come to him.)

"the question about the "good" person....i keep getting a man who is older. not senior but probably 40-50. this is not your brother and it feels like a man. it feels to me that her confidence level has shifted. i am being shown a straight line...she moved forward on it and now has moved back a bit. think of it like two steps forward and one step back. for some reason she feels as though she has displeased this person. i do not think she has but this is her thought."

So weird because I cannot think of anything that would make Kiara feel this way. My dad has been very stressed out lately about his father and such. He is not home as often, either. Maybe that's why?



And this is just a random thing Kiara told Nancy. So weird. We call her Kiki or Ki A LOT.

"kiara is her "formal" name she says. her "real" name(i could not quite get it) but it starts with a "k". she prefers the "real" name as it is more fun. a more relaxed name. she would like to be more relaxed like that name.(does that make sense to you?)"


It makes a lot of sense though - she always gets more excited when I say "Kiki" or "Ki." I suppose I must refer to her as Kiki, formally known as Kiara?


She's going to be talking to her some more, so I'll let you all know what I hear.
