Some of you know that we have about 390 creatures, stuffed animals, imaginary friends and imaginary things named "Sam." There is Sam, the imaginary friend that walked back from PA, Sam the stone frog, clay turtle, stuffed turtle, dog, spider, bee, ant, imaginary dinosaur, another imaginary friend named Sam (he only stayed an afternoon though), imaginary cat, wooden elephant, imaginary bird, stuffed fish, wooden train, cat drawing, imaginary zebra, imaginary mouse, fly, ladybug, snake, gila monster, rock...oh, I'm exhausted just thinking about them and trying to remember all of the "Sams" that have floated through my life.
Well, welcome Sam Number 391. I am just going to have call them by number from now on. Talk about an identity crisis!
We have jumped back in to the fish pond and have welcomed a blue Betta fish in to our home. Mini #1 was adament that his new pet be named Sam and wouldn't even entertain other suggestions. Clearly we didn't have much luck when we veered from our name pattern with our beloved Dorothy, the goldfish.
Wish us luck with the newest member of the Molly Lou family...there are sure to be some good Mini #1 stories with this second try at being a pet owner.

I am amazed at your uncanny ability to keep all your pets and imaginary friends organized! I'm taking notes for when lallie enters this stage!
ReplyDeleteWishing you luck with the newest member haha. Cute post.
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious!!
ReplyDeleteHoley moley! How does he keep them straight?
ReplyDeleteExcept, wait...he never has to worry about saying the wrong name! Keeps their feelings care for, I guess.
Another Sam? Oh my! I don't know how you can keep it all straight! :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome new Sam! That might be the cutest thing I have ever heard! So many Sam's!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that they all have the same name... although mini #1 might use it to his advantage and blame in on Sam and you and Mr. MLG are left to decide which one.
