 I
just wanted to give you an update on Melly. Things are going
smoothly here at the Gifford household. Melly is still
adjusting well and has, in no time, started sticking up for
herself. Athena wants to play most of the time, but Melly
doesn't want to play very often. We laugh when she shows her
teeth to Athena because it's extremely different from her
true personality.
We love having Melly in our house and we have nicknamed
Athena "Miss Jello." When we pet Melly or have her in our
laps when we watch TV, Athena comes right on top of Melly
and me and sits with us too.
 Sometimes
it seems like everyday we start fresh with Melly. In
the morning time, it seems like she forgets who we are
because she is very shy and runs from us, but towards the
end of the day...she is sitting in our lap and less shy.
But...the next morning...it's the same thing over again.
I'm sure in about two or three months, she will have
adjusted.
As for going outside in the backyard, she loves it. We
have come to the conclusion that Melly has won every eating
contest--- she finishes her food in record time.
As I write you this email, I look back and much to my
surprise, Athena has taught Melly some things at our house;
for example--how to lay on the the guest bed and get away
with it by looking so cute!
