Nana and Papa went to Hawaii this September and true to Nana and Papa form, we received a little care package with all kinds of goodies. The Bugs got necklaces from the tent church, earring of the state flower, bracelets from the farmers market. I got some note cards featuring lovely prints of painting from the natives and Garrett got nuts. Macadamia nuts that is. One more thing that was in the the box was Tom for Brendan. Tom is a turtle that came from a little zoo on one of the islands.
Like everything in our life, Little Bug makes up a back story for all the stuffed animals, and even though Tom was a Hawaii kissing turtle, he had to leave his girlfriend, Tiffany, behind at the zoo and over the long journey to Georgia became angry. So now we have Tom the Terrible Turtle and a terrible turtle he is with a fondness for Tootsie Rolls.
'Til the next adventure...
