Squeaky 2


I have a stuffed cat, his name is Squeaky and he used to be white. I say used to be because from about the age of 3 till well...now I carried him around with me everywhere. He slept with me and much more right now he is sitting on a shelf in my closet but not to far in the back because he can't breath that way and I am working on a design for a little house/shelf to put on the wall near the bed so he can be close all the time. I want a sort of shadow box without a glass door because as I mentioned before I want him to be able to breath easily. Now I know this is a little bit fantasy but I don't care I love my Squeaky. When Chance was born my Mom bought him a little stuffed white cat and until yesterday he could have cared less about it or any other stuffed animal for that matter. But yesterday he spotted him and pointed so I took him down from his perch and introduced him to Chance. Chance smiled and proceeded to carry him around for a long time not wanting to let him go. Pointing to his nose and eyes and petting his soft fur. Now he lives in Chance's bed and Chance takes him out and carries him around then puts him safely back in bed. It is sooooo cute, I have named him Squeaky 2. Also today Chance talked on the phone to Scott but this time he actually answered the phone. I was in the bathroom and he got to it before I did so he answered it. That was a first, by the time I got there he was talking to Daddy on the phone. They had a very nice conversation and when he was done talking he handed the phone to me, just like I asked him to. It seems like we had a big day but really we just hung out at the house all morning, this afternoon though we went to Zoolibation at the local Zoo. It is an after hours event for members only. They had music and all the extras were free so we rode the train which we usually don't do because it costs extra, Chance likes that. They also had a lot of animals out that we could touch, so we did, a rooster, a parrot, a hedgehog and a tortoise, Chance did not want to touch the bugs which was fine with me, he really liked the tortoise and the birds though. It was a fun trip to the Zoo and since it was late in the afternoon the weather was much cooler than when we usually go to the zoo.

I'm glad your house was fine after the storm.

Chance looks so grown up talking on the phone. I remember when he was such a little baby. It's been fun watching him grow up.
