Repeated exposure to a stressful situation makes the situation less stressful.

My dad and mom left me again in pursuit of lobsters and blueberry pie. This time Poppy and Nana stayed with me. The first night I slept by myself until 4am, then Poppy had to come and sleep with me. The second night I slept by myself the whole night. I didn’t cry at all.

Still, I am so very happy they are back!

I think they missed me too – they tried to make  friends with ducks!

Life Lesson: What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
