Hoppy Swimmy Sunny

Please meet the newest and shortest
lasting member of our family.

I was informed that Hoppy Swimmy Sunny, 

named for his best qualities was Miss Boo's cousin and that 

the Dude was his Dad.  It really makes you rethink the 

whole species thing doesn't it?  I was proud that they even 

touched the little guy as they tend to be a bit squeamish

with all living things not of the human race, but they took

right to poor old Hoppy and played with him 

until his sides were heaving from exhaustion.  

How many times must one poor little frog be tossed into

the pool to see him swim.  According to them he can't

drown because he is a frog.  Or should I say a toad.

They decided that was what he was and well, what 

do I know?  So they played and played with him.

We had to go to Toy Story 3 and they were worried he 

wouldn't be there when they got back.  I told them that if

he was they could have him. 

(Kind of like the "if you love it, let it free" thing.)

He was!

Yet sometime in the night, Mr. Finn having compassion 

upon Mr. Hoppy, set him free.

Oh!  The sadness and grief that has settled upon this

home at the loss of poor old Hoppy.

Why would he leave?  They loved him so.
