oh .. i had such fun shopping for books that had little 'characters' with them tonight for the kids in our family! got charlotte's web (and a soft little pink pig stuffed animal) .. the book also had a little 'web' necklace with it! got 'happy feet' and a dear little penguin .. got a book from my own childhood "pokey little puppy" with the cutest little puppy dog animal .. got one on dinosaurs and a 'baby dinosaur' .. (looked for another copy of 'walter the farting dog .. with the stuffed puppy that 'poots') .. got that one for my grandson last year and wanted another for a little nephew .. but just can't find it anywhere this year! and i got a 'pony' and pony book for ... i swear .. the cutest little red-headed girl on this earth. my brother's daughter's daughter. i've seen photos of her and thought she was the homeliest little child i'd ever seen. when we met her at my dad's funeral .. she melted our hearts! BEAUTIFUL .. BEAUTIFUL .. BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!! and the most soulful eyes i've ever seen on a child! RED HAIR .. gentle, wispy little being .. and when hank (a complete stranger to her .. and with a FUZZY face (beard/mustache) asked for a kiss .. she took her two precious little hands and cupped his face in them and kissed him gently on the cheek .. i will NEVER forget that moment .. i swear .. it was absolutely spiritual. when he asked her what she would like for santa to bring her for christmas .. she sweetly replied "a pony".

I am sure I don't have to tell you, Libbie, but treasure that time! I know every momma says it, but it's true, one moment you are reading to your little ones and tucking them in and the next moment they are just about grown up!
I am nostolgic today, my daughter turn 14 over the weekend!!!
O, Come let us adore HIM! www.beequilting.blogspot.com |

The "Walter" books sound so funny - I can't wait to look for them for my little boys, too - and Bonnie - my husband grew up with the "Pokey Little Puppy" also. I just love hearing about kids books like these - my little one (3) loves to be read to, and I love to read to him!
XOXO, Libbie

What a neat idea to match a book and a critter!
One of my daughter's favorites was The Pokey Little Puppy!

"Walter the Farting Dog"?!?!?!?!?! Now, really, Frannie -  !
Your little "niece" sounds darling - what a sweetie-pie, too. Those children will just love their books and little "guys" that go with them. What lucky little ones!!!
XOXO, Libbie
