| The silly tree |
I’ve always had stuffed animals. When I was a kid I had a lot of them but I gave away all except my favourite ones. Now I seem to have acquired quite the collection again. Some of them I bought; some came from friends, and others I inherited. Each one has a story but that’s for another day. Today I decided to use them to turn an old lamp into a silly tree. When I look over at them I can imagine each of them saying something. No, I haven't been drinking and, yes, I know my head is a very strange place to be.

| Teddy: Look Ma I'm a firefighter! Cat: I know I can get to those birds |
 |
| Teddy: Look Ma, no hands! Cat: I'm a cat. Of course I'm going to push him off. |
 |
| Panda: Why is there a hedgehog on my head and a cat paw in my face? Hedgehog: I don't think I like it here. It's too far off the ground |
 |
| Ostrich: Why me? Cat: What white bear? I didn't push him off. Brown Bear: Just a little bit higher... |
 |
| Stork: Do you come here often? Duck: No. Do you know who owns those ugly orange feet? |
 |
| Yellow-headed parrot: Whatcha doin? Whatcha doin? Can I help? Blue-headed parrot: How come I have to sit behind him? |
 |
| Cardinal: Don't look now but I think there's a bear below us. Googly-eyed bird: Maybe if I try really hard I can fly down to the desk. |

OK, I hate to say it but you've left out the dinosaurs!
I love stuffed animals too and have a collection. Some were my late mother's and late sister's. Wonderful
