Grandpa....please wear the black one!!!
That's right....little Annika (just 4½) seems to have fallen in love with Subby.
I was baby sitting her all day Sunday and was about to leave the house with her (thought I'd treat her for some strawberry ice-cream at our favourite parlour) when she stopped me dead in my tracks by saying those very touching words....she actually made me take off Yammy and slap on Subby. Subby, of course, was over the moon and was grinning from ear to ear. I could have sworn I even saw him blush!! Now she keeps telling me she really loves the black "Rollllllllex"....she has this delicious way of rolling the letter "L" and it sounds very, very cute. Wish you guys could hear her....she is the apple of my eye!!

Welcome to TRF. I like your username 'cause I've got TWO 3135s - the Subby and the Yammy!! Whatever you meant by your comment doesn't worry me.....but what would worry me is if you were a troll and then you were to be banned by some of these smart mods of ours who can catch on real quick. Either way, I hope you can put in some more productive and creative posts. It would add some meaning to the forum and also some meaning to your presence here on TRF.....otherwise, you're just wasting everyone's time and pissing people off!! Cheers - JJ
