I got out of bed to get some water and Joel was on his blankie right against the matress, I always see him before I get up so I dont step on him.
Theres a gate at my door to keep him in(not that he'll leave,lol)and it was pitch dark and I didn't know Joel decided to get out of bed and sit RIGHT at the gate for me. So when I went over the gate.............I kinda kicked him

and made him cry

and it totally scared me bc I wasn't expecting him to be there.
And I felt soooooooooooo bad!
But he's okay now I gave him tons of cuddles and he's sleeping on my legs now.

So now I learned if I leave I have to check the other side of the gate when I come back
