Emme has the strangest habit, one of many, I guess. When we stop on the stairs to "chat," she smells my eyes. Ever since she was very small, whenever we go down stairs from the second floor to the first, we stop and chat. I go down two steps and sit down on that step. Emme stays on the landing. This way our faces are exactly the same level. Then I pet her and tell what a good girl she is and how much I like her. She leans over and smells my eyelids. I close my eyes and she sniffs my lids. Her nose is cold and damp and it feels like tiny angel kisses every time she touches my eyelids. Why does she do it? I have no idea in the world, but she does it almost every time we chat. There must be a reason. Only Emme knows.
