The Saga of Charlie McFroggypants
It is said a journey of one thousand miles begins with one step.
Our trip began as all trips do with the first step out our front door. Charlie McFroggypants was all set to be our guide. We thought he would make a wonderful addition to our trip so off we went. Charlie loved the lake, but not the run across the Highway! Charlie McFroggypants loved navigating the corn fields on the hood of the tractor. Charlie loved lunch at the Big Foot Museum in Willow Creek, but didn't like the thought of being Big Foot's lunch. Charlie Mcfroggypants loved riding in the bib pocket of my overalls but when I fell and sufficated him in my breasts he was not very happy! When he fell off the lighthouse and broke the cap of his hat that was the last straw! Leaning too close to the rail at Humbolt Bay....he took a dive! It is believed that after rushing across highways, being lost in wild vegetation, racing off on a tractor, being offered up to Big Foot and being smashed in the pocket of my overalls he took a farewell photo at the Lighthouse. The Lighthouse is his last known whereabouts. When our backs were turned, Charlie McFroggypants dove into the Bay and swam off with the fishes. This is not to say "He is Permanately Swimming with the Fishes" as some might have you believe. We are hopeful that we shall hear from him in the near future. Perhaps a postcard from Oregon or a snapshot in front of Mann's Chinese Theatre. We can only hope.
Oh How I mourned the loss of our dear friend! Mike, went back to the last known whereabouts of Charlie McFroggypants and searched for him far and wide. Even explaining to the homeless man (We died laughing in the car as Mike gestured that Charlie was six inches high!) But to no avail. He was no where to be found!
On his feet it says... Charlie McFroggypants If you find me take a picture and send me on my way. We hope to hear from our dear friend but until we do....We have the Three Bears!
Pictures of Charlie McFroggypants and the Three Bears can be seen here... http://thehappybubbe.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_thehappybubbe_archive.html

Poor, poor Charlie McFroggypants what a trying day he must have had that day and yet, I'm sure he's off somewhere having the time of his life just waiting to be discovered and yet hoping it's not too soon.
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I can honestly say I have truly enjoyed reading your blog. I was stunned at the number of abortions your family has experienced. My sister had an abortion but that is the only one I know about. She now has three healthy adult children and one of them has children of her own.

Psalm518 I prefer to pinch cheeks, especially those of nursing babies...I love them!
4evrHischild I know, The number estounded me when my daughter and I began putting together the things we knew. And those are only the ones we know about, who knows how many we don't know. It effects the root of the family so deeply.
and lastly, I do hope someday we get a postcard of out dear Charlie. I hope you checked out his pictures.
