My granddaughter gives us both a stuffed animal to sleep with at night so we feel safe. Recently we had her crib turned into a daybed so she can get out to use the bathroom at night. It’s so cute when we wake up in the morning our bed is littered with stuffed animals!
Good morning to all! This is so cute. I remember many many years back going to sleep at night with my stuffed dog. I was invincible. :) PS Where’s Marg?
I love sleeping with my best friend, too. Sometimes I just like to watch him and marvel at how handsome and peaceful he looks when he’s sleeping, and then I’ll just put my arms around him and hold him close to my chest until I fall back asleep.
Thanks, Mark, for being my best friend as well as my boyfriend.

when I was younger my ‘best friend’ was my bear. Took her everywhere. Always helped with me being afraid of the dark or just being sad. Now it’s my husband beside me that chases away the scary or sad thoughts.
We sleep with two Boston terriers, who like to wrestle before settling down for the night. Loki and Gabee will then cuddle up and snuggle. I love listening to everyone breathing before drifting off myself. But they don’t squint quite like Hobbes…
I have two bears (Bear and Buddy) and they travel wherever my husband and I go…they have their OWN beds, though. And LOTS of other stuff we’ve acquired over the years…makes our friends laugh - so it’s fine…
I’ve flagged them all here. I wish I could go to sleep as easily as Calvin with his briend Hobbes by him.
One part earlier I was so sleepy and I don’t like to take napes and yet I could stay away. I have a good excuse some of the meds I take assigned by a specialiest to help my rt shoulder out makes me sleepy and I want until after 5:30pm to take them. Then I don’t drive. One is muscle relaxer and it’s affected me all over.
It’s nice to see Calvin hittin’ a positive note- he tends to be so naughty. Maybe getting shoved in the mud the other day was good for him. ;) But it is a good reminder to all of us to appreciate our friends (whether we sleep with them or not).
When I was hospitalized after the birth of our first child, my best friend brought me a special teddy bear because she thought it looked like my husband, and she knew I missed him. I still sleep with it when he’s away on business trips.

I’ve had the clipping of this from the newspaper near my bed for years. I’ve looked it every night before going to sleep.

I wouldn’t sleep a wink if I had a tiger in my bed….

“I think nighttime is dark so you can imagine your fears with less distraction.” What a great line, Mr. Watterson!

I love sleeping with my best friend. I could sleep better if she used the Breath Right strips I bought her.

Linus and his blanket, Calvin and Hobbes - both are security in a fearsome world. As for Spammers - ‘A Flagging I will go!’

SPAM ALERT!
A personal record set for flagging this morning, 5-in-a-row!

This might explain the good sales of those inflatable friends. Might.

All of us sleep with one or more of our best friends every night! Easy when there’s 5 cats & 2 dogs! :)

He who sleeps with spammers lays down with vipers! Or something Biblical like that.

I read toons in the afternoon so y’all apparently take care of the spammers early. (Thanks!)

Glad I missed the spam festival that was apparently going on! I love this particular Sunday strip…it’s a real heart-tugger.

Ditto the part about loving to sleep with my best friend! I’ve been doing that for 22 years now. And luckily for me, he hardly ever snores!!

Calvin & Hobbes is universal.

Poor Hobbes missed a compliment and a Kodak Moment.

This is one of my favorite Calvin and Hobbes strips.
