Duck

When my dad was a little boy he had a stuffed turtle. His dad, however, told him that it was a duck. My dad, eventually, believed him and to this day the stuffed turtle (which he still has) is a duck.

Well, this last summer I really started liking ducks, uh, I mean, turtles. I got a turtle ring, and a turtle necklace, and I adopted every turtle I saw while snorkeling. But I'm a good mom and I let them go their own way. :) Anyway, this last Christmas break--not on Christmas, mind you--my grandma gave me a little stuffed, plush, green turtle. For one of the first times in my life I didn't have to think twice about a name. I named him Duck. :)
