Aloysius' first GUND...

There is a story about Flounder and her favorite stuffed animal, "Puppy." (Yes I know...not very original!) Back in 1987 I went away with a family I used to babysit for. We went out to Long Beach Island for Labor day weekend which happen to fall on my birthday. Long behold my brothers surprised me! They drove a few hours to come out and give me a GUND stuffed puppy dog which I had been wanting and turned right around and went home. I felt incredibly special. Unknown to me until recently, Barbara (the mom in the family and a dear friend today) began a tradition of buying a GUND for her daughter Jordana every year. And this week, Aloysius received a GUND Frog from Jordana with the name "Aloysius" embroidered on it!!! Eric photographed Alejandro with it...
