June 22, 2005 Oh good.
Goofy the Space Alien is a colourful puppet I bought Frances for Christmas at the One of a Kind Show last year. His mouth squeaks and there is a stick attached to his left hand so you can make him do hand gestures. He is the bane of my existence. Frances loves Goofy--at least, now she does. She loves it when Goofy eats her feet or licks her neck, when he points to things, pats her on the head, or even just sits there, a red lump on Mummy's knee. When she sees him, she will crawl over, pick him up, and hold him out to be with big, pleading blue eyes. If I don't notice within a few seconds, tears will threaten. Yesterday, she figured out the magic of "more" with Goofy. She'll point to him and say, "more!" Today, a new milestone, in more than one way. She pointed to him and very clearly said... ..."MINE!"
