Ode to a Chocolate Doggie...


Grace is in love with little stuffed animals. They go with her where ever we go. (Even at church I am required to hold the paw of what ever animal accompanied us while we are singing)
Well Chocolate Doggie was a special favorite of hers...
One tragic day Chocolate Doggie was "GONE!!"...and he hasn't been seen since. The house has been searched from top to bottom, beds have been moved, cars have been cleaned, dogs at Grandma and Papa's have been interrogated. But to no avail.. he was gone.
After another weekend of a Chocolate Doggie sighting gone awry, Frank took it upon himself to find a replacement Chocolate Doggie. Easier said then done. After consulting experts and searching EBay he was able to locate the elusive beast! At Walgreen's... They say that the price includes shipping and they ship to the US.. Lets hope that they count Alaska at part of the US!
Chocolate Doggie emailed Gracie telling her that he was sorry he had left but he didn't want to miss his flight. He was back east getting a new ribbon and chocolate kiss attached and that he would be home soon. He attached a picture of himself. Gracie was SO excited and was clapping her hands, all smiles. In the last 30 minutes she has come up to the computer and requested to see his picture again... and again.
