I haven't found Button's box of clothes yet (it's here somewhere) so she's stuck with wearing the same clothes for now. She says she doesn't mind, but I can't imagine wearing the same clothes all the time, so I will find some or make some.
I asked if now that she was rested and back to living on her shelf, if maybe we could talk a little, and she agreed.
It was pretty clear to me when I first found her looking at the tree, that Button was afraid of me. And it broke my heart. So I needed to know why, and how I could fix it.
At first, she was reluctant to tell me what all this had been about, but we got through it. I even relate to some of the things she's afraid of.
Moving is exciting as well as terrifying, for both of us, so we agreed to just try to focus on the "exciting" part and not so much the
"terrifying" part. :)
I promised not to pack her away, or forget her, which was really what she was most afraid of.
Button seems very curious about our new home, in Florida, and she's even starting to sound a little excited about the moving..
She insists no one was staying with her in the boot house, so I'm just going to let it go for now. She'll tell me when she's ready, but after our talk, I'm pretty certain it wasn't Leah. Which means we're going to continue searching for both Leah and Amelia. Maybe they're just hiding out somewhere like Button was.
I guess we'll find out.
Towards the end of our chat, Button seemed to be feeling better, and honestly, so was I.
Now I just need to find the box with her bigger tent in it, and her other clothes. They've got to be here somewhere.
