I should pass on this story: a friend gave us all giant plushie microbes for Christmas one year; I got malaria. I threw it on the floor experimentally and Abbey the Pookie immediately adopted it as her "baby". She carries it around in her mouth and tries to pull it's little pants off. Every once in a while she'll keen over it, like she's distressed it's not moving. It's quite amazing -- never seen her do anything like it before or since.

Animals. Quirky, but (and?) ya gotta love 'em.
