rocket

I've said it before, but A. is a very intense kid.  She argues INTENSELY but also loves intensely   When she finds something she loves, she makes sure it is well taken cared for.  Meet Rocket.

 No, Rocket is not that odd shaped dog pillow.  That is the pillow that B made in home economics class in 7th grade that we recently found in his memory box.  Rocket is the yellow orange and blue rocket.  You may be confused because it is wearing pajamas aka a scarf wrapped around it's shaft and is covered in a blanket with a stuffed animal on it's on mattress.  Obviously, it is bed time. And obviously, as any rocket would, it (I mean she as A. has corrected me many times) loves the book "Giraffe's Can't Dance" and must have that as her story.  You may also be confused because she has someone else's name I believe, LeFieve, because we bought it for $.10 at a garage sale 2 years ago and it has been sitting in our outdoor toy box since last summer.  Despite all of these confusing circumstances, Rocket is the newest family member in the Collins household and we love her dearly... at least A. does.
