He's Back!!







On Wednesday we went to West Warren, Massachusetts to visit with Aunt Di & Uncle Kenny, Laurie and Aunt Donna & Uncle Jim. Aunt Di and Uncle Kenny were in town for Christmas and they were heading back on Thursday to Nashville, TN. Anyways, we brought the kids and Anneli had to bring "Little Bushy Squirrel" with her that she got from Grandma & Grandpa Mansfield. Of course, he's been going EVERYWHERE with her since Christmas Eve. We were heading out to leave and he was in our bag, but when we got home he wasn't there! UGH! We had LOST "Little Bushy Squirrel!!!! UGH! We made our phone calles to Massachusetts and everyone searched and searched inside and out for Anneli's little friend. He was nowhere to be found...I even called the store that I thought Grandma Mansfield bought him but they were sold out. Thank God for the internet. We found him on Amazon.com, we ordered him by 12:30pm on Thursday, January 3rd, he was shipped from CA by 2:15pm and he made it here on Saturday, Janaury 5th! Hooray! I was so excited because poor Anneli has been going around the house, "Little Busy Squirrel, where are you!?" and looking EVERYWHERE! When we got him in the mail today we had to put an "A" on his tag and then we could give her the toy. She was sooooo happy to see her best friend return. "Little Bushy Squirrel you are the best squirrel ever." she said when she got him back and she kissed him!
Reunited with "Little Bushy Squirrel"!

A special thank you to Grandma & Grandpa Mansfield for a very special friend and a great book--The Busy Little Squirrel! We love the books by Nancy Tafuri!! They are so simple and fun for us to read together! THANKS!!!!
