Savina could hear him following quickly behind her. Secretly, she hoped Denali never lost that excitability and playfulness that he had. It was likely too much to hope for, for everyone changed as they grew. She certainly was not the same wolf she had been when she was his age. At the very least though, hopefully he would get to keep that part of him longer than most did. The Marino woman's goal was to try and shield her children from the harshness of the world for as long as she could without actually interfering with their growth. It was a touch balance to strike, but she felt she was doing a rather good job of it right now.
Denali's grin was all the reward she needed when she showed off what she had brought for him. When he put on the hat she couldn't help but laugh at the sight of his ears trapped beneath the knitted fabric. "I'll have to cut out some holes in that so your ears can still stand up," she said smiling. He quickly donned a pair of mittens and finally grabbed one of the coats. He got his arm through one sleeve, but was having difficulty with the second one and started turning in circles like he was chasing his own tail. Savina stifled more laughter and stood up to help her son. Placing a hand on his shoulder to stop his spinning, she then picked up the other side of the jacket so he could get his arm into the other sleeve.
