A friend of mine at work is determined to find a “Buddy Jesus” doll, cut it in half and put it in a Jack in the Box, and tape candy canes to its hands. 😃

I’m still trying to get over the cat’s pancakes! That is hilarious!

I love the way that despite all the commercials targetted at children, he still wants candy canes for the rest of the family, and pancakes for the cat.

Is anyone getting a picture of the cat standing on its back legs, holding a spatula, and flipping little tiny pancakes?

I didn’t get that picture untill you just mentioned it. Dressing a cat up to prepare breakfast is just one of the thing I could see my young cousin doing. Thanks for the mental image!!

**I love you, and I like you too.**

Impressive grasp of this concept for a three year old. I love a lot of people I really can’t stand.

He’s gonna be a heartbreaker, **Woeg,** if he’s this charming after a mere three years of life.

_I want a jumping Tigger that says “Boink.”_

You sure you name isn’t Watterson and you son’s name Calvin?  
You could name the tiger “Hobbs!” 😃

Thanks for sharing with an old bachelor. Made my day!! 😉
