A Day in the Life...

...of a suitcase? A year or so ago, we got a little suitcase for Mimi, and Buddy has always been fascinated by it. Ever since I have been looking for one for him. Yesterday, while looking for various items at our local second-hand store, Savers, we found the one...apparently they knew each other in the pre-Earth life. Buddy adores the rolling wonder.
In the 24 hours since we found it in the store, the suitcase has only been out of his sight when I specifically forbade it's entrance into the restaurant this evening, and when he's slept. It stayed in the car. It's gone to Gramma Sharon's house, up and down the driveway and sidewalks around our house. It sits by his bed when he goes to bed (I don't think he thought to put it in his bed...strange, since it literally follwed him everywhere on the playground.)

They had a wonderful time at the park, going up the steps, through the tunnels, and down the slides. Buddy reportedly saved the suitcase from a bee...I was shown the wings, smashed on the slide. When I asked how he smashed it, Mimi said "His shoe." But Buddy disagreed, saying, "My bottom!" At least he still wears diapers!

Buddy has always made friends rather easily, but I never realized that extended to inanimate objects. It is so fun to see him with his new "friend". ;)
