One afternoon in October (October 7 to be exact), I'm in the bathroom and I hear an "uh, oh" come out of Clara's mouth. Mike says, "uh Katie?" So I come out to find Clara holding Puppy's head in one hand and puppy's "body" in the other. She wasn't too happy and wanted his head put back on. And...I don't know how to sew :( . So I said (very calmly as to not upset Clara more), okay well maybe we can see if Ms. De can fix Puppy. If not, then we might have to wait till Gamma can fix him (Gamma and Papa were traveling).I ran over to the O'Briens and luckily they were home. Ms. De took Puppy right away and got ready for his "surgery." She said she'd work on him right away. (Mr. Ray joked that she should sew his head on backwards. Seriously Mr. Ray, let's not give our child anymore nightmares :) ).
A few hours later, Puppy was all recovered and came home all together! Thank goodness for our neighbors!
Why, oh why did Clara have to choose to love the most the one "lovey" we cannot replace?...
