Sick inside that is. You probably all remember "Baby." Wally's little stuffed elephant friend. We can't find Baby anywhere. The last sighting I remember of Baby was at the post office with Wally rubbing the poor thing all over the floor. But now, just gone, I called the post office... nothing. Wally asks about Baby a lot, but I think deep down he knows that Baby is gone. It has been a while too, I just kept hoping Baby would turn up. It feels like the end of an era. Part of me can't believe Wally let Baby out of his sights long enough to get left behind, but maybe that is a sign that it will be alright and he has out grown Baby a little. He has started to carry other animals around occasionally, but it is nothing like before. I would have liked to keep Baby at least in a box somewhere just to remember the love and comfort Wally found in the mangled elephant. Truth be told, I am more upset by it than Wally.
You won't believe this, but while I am sitting here typing Wally has just come and asked me where Baby is because he made a shirt and cape out of paper for Baby to wear. I had to tell him Baby is still lost. I think I have to go cry now. I am going to think about offering a reward. I could hang up a wanted poster at the post office. Baby, wherever you are, we love you!!!

Oh, if Jaren ever lost his beary I think we would all cry. He lost his 1st beary at the grocery store once, but luckily, he found a replacement. So sorry!
