Peepsqueak LOVES BEARS! …. and so do I!! I LOVE toys! I love weird toys, stuff animals, special teddy bears, and more. Having three grandsons gives me a great excuse to buy MORE toys! I took a trip to the thrift store just this week to look for action figures! I ran them through the dishwasher and stowed in my big toy trunk. Three more trucks are sitting near the book-case in the “YaYa” room. Its great fun! On Tuesday I played “Superhero”! My youngest grandson loves the stuffies! Including my own little Peeksqueak plush by Merry Makers. If you want to order one, you can go to the website, or call them.

They are a great toy company. I want ALL THEIR TOYS! ha ha!
You can also find Peepsqueak on his Facebook page. I am going to have another book Give-A-Way as soon as the new toy gets here! Peepsqueak and I are so excited! I may also put it on this Word Press site so stay posted!

Surprises
This weekend I found myself thinking about the girl with the bunny. I met her shortly after I had my baby (now Teen). She was standing by the side of our road holding a large stuffed bunny. The bunny had once been white but was now very dirty. And she was holding out her thumb and hitchhiking.
Oh, and she was about 11.
I pulled over and we talked. It was clear there was something off about her – developmentally disabled? Mentally ill? She was fascinated by my baby. She came over several times to visit. I didn’t say no, but she creeped me out. She was not like any child I had ever met, but at that time I had limited experience with children and had not been one myself for more than 20 years. I saw her at times walking around the neighborhood, sometimes at dusk, always with the bunny. Once I walked her home after dark. She lived a few blocks away but would not let me come anywhere near her house, saying she would get in trouble.
Now I think back and wonder what happened to that girl. How long was it before some creepy guy found her? Why did her family care so little for her that they just let her roam the streets, holding her stuffed bunny? Why didn’t I report her to Children’s Services?
I hope things turned out better for her than I imagine.
Today a short "whats on my desk" kind of post...
As some of you might have read in this post, Keene State College is collecting owls from children's book illustrators for their 100 year anniversary.
Here is my contribution, just shipped off:
Since it is going to be 96 degrees in Boston today, thought I'd post a little snow!
I love the cheerful yellow, and what a cute drawing!
