Popping back in from forever ago just to add a bit regarding friends made
here. Currently my almost 2 year old is sleeping under a beautiful quilt
made for my 6-1/2 year old by our very own miss KLee. He is also sleeping
in his crib with a sights and sounds crib toy from Mardelle. Any from the
lovely LL, in my 6-1/2 year old's room is his (my) very own Mikey
Kellerbear
complete with an "Arson" raincoat. He used to love taking off and putting
back on the bear's boots.
I have enjoyed meeting LL and Robin in Baltimore (and getting an autograph
and picture taken with Reed!!), and meeting Kim Dumke out in Arizona. As
KLee said, there are just soooo many moments, jokes, and history to
recount.
It has been an enjoyable 9 1/2 years (for me at least).
