[blparent] Gift Ideas

[Dena Wainwright]

Joe-Elizabeth:
Elise has both of those toys, and loves them. She especially loves the 
hammer in the hammer away toy. we call it her hammer of justice, because she 
loves to bang it on everything like a gavel.
she's just starting to understand the caterpillar, but loves to chase it.
