Meet Claude

When I was preparing to leave for Colorado, my three-year-old daughter, Clara, declared that she would come with me (her lovey would stay behind to keep Mama company). When all eventually agreed that this was not possible, Clara sent her diminuitive Belgian bear, Claude, along with me as her emmissary.

I spoke with Clara last night, and she let me know that she loved me, and didn't miss Claude (presumably to reassure me that I wouldn't have to FedEx him back before bedtime).

Claude has been with me on the slopes, and may even consent to pose for additional photos.

Be careful how much fun you have with Claude! These traveling gnomes and bears seem to get a taste for travel and have been known to go on the road for weeks beyond their owners original plans. He looks courteous, however, and I know he'll check with Clara before he asks to stay with Dan and Ken for the rest of the trip.

Does this mean that I have to send Peppy out there to replace Claude when he's gone? I don't think his 28 year old stuffed body could handle it from the looks of things...
