SMALL JOYS: HELP SMOOTH OUT LIFE'S BUMPS

For some unexplained reason, one of the Grandlove's favorite toys is this silly Hippo.  We have researched and found the Hippo for Christmas song and we now sing it to get that smile that melts our hearts.  Who would have thunk that a dollar store toy would become so special to our little guy?  I take pictures of the Hippo, since he is quite sneaky.  Sometimes the Hippo takes a bite out of the little ear and sometimes the Hippo finds himself sacrificing a foot to a young, exploring mouth.  Such is life in HippoLand.

  1. I understand. I had a toy hippo when I was a child.

    This is so sweet! Thanks for the picture and the blog!

  2. Now whenever I hear that Hippopotamus song, I will always think of a certain ferret and her grandlove.

    Always good to see a post from you, ferret!

    Take care, my friend.

  3. We will be taking Hippo with us next week when we go in for surgery. Maybe the Hippo will bring us peace and little pain.
