My baby Joey is now a year old - I can't believe it!!! He seemed to know it too - We had all been telling him that his birthday was coming soon...........I think he really understood!!! We was even more full of himself than usual!! I bought him a small cake (we never turn down an opportunity for cake!!) He got a small peice which he just licked a little and dug in and threw around the room - To celebrate I just ordered Ferrets for Dummies - I figured being a better informed mom would be the best present for my little fur-man!! Joey Favorite toy now - It's a Monkey in a cage with sunglasses - When you squeese it's hand it vibrates and sings.....Wild Thing........You make my heart sing......... Needless to say we have heard it MANY times recently - Joey's quest is to set the poor monkey free - He finally gets tire of the singing and walks off chattering!!!!!! I feel the pain for those of you who have lost fur-LOVES recently - You are so lucky to have had them in your lives - Mindy (Mom), Joey (Listen you ##%%monkey.......If you'll just be still and quit that blasted singing, I'll get you out of that cage), Fatboy Slim (Forget the monkey..... lets take a nap!), and Little Lucy (when I turn 1 do I get a monkey too?) With Stinky Jr. and Sally with all the others watching over us.......... Singing.......You Make everything.......GROO-VEY......Wild Thing!!!!!!!!!! [Posted in FML issue 3300]
