Hi there! [waving] I'm very excited to tell you about a handsome fella named Sherman that toddled over the bridge a while back. He smiled easily and seemed relieved to be here. I hopped on up to him out to introduce myself and found that he has a unique tail. It was short and really cute. I asked him why he didn't imagine himself to have a full tail again here, but he said this made him different and it would be cute to all the girls here. [chuckle] He stood up on his back legs like a bear to take a look around the place. Then we gave each other a sniff greeting and I admired his shinny new halo. Do you know what he told me? He told me that he rode the moonbeams all the way here. Talk about arriving in style. He said he wants him mommy to know that. Next, I walked with him to show him the sites like the treat bar, bouncy clouds, sofa fields, fleece mountain and everything else. But he wanted to see the reflecting pool. He wanted to look into it to check on his mommy because he was afraid that she was heartbroken by his leaving. They've been long time friends you know. So he gazed into it, but I don't know what he saw because do you know what he did next? He plopped his head right into it --"bloosh". I had to push my jaw closed with my paw it was gaping so wide. He came up for air and told me to "watch this". He splashed his face down again and he blew the biggest bubbles I ever saw. In fact, they were so massive they actually broke the surface of the water and floated up into the air and the other ferrets that came to greet him flew around popping them and dooking. He's such a cut up! I had a real good time with him. He's a bit obsessed with the pool and likes to see how big he can make the waves. He's having so much fun, he has yet to let it settle down so that he can check on his friend. But that's okay. Something tells me she is just fine. And he has all the time in the world to look in on her. [giving a silly salute] Your pal, Sandee! [Posted in FML issue 4695]
