well i bought Aaron his birthday present today. it's a lovely little stuffed penguin. you see, he likes penguins. and so i thought that i would get him one. it's too bad he doesn't like bears best... penguins are hard to find!!!!!! there was only one place that had one (the last place i went to, obviously....) and there was only ONE IN THE ENTIRE STORE. but it's a cute one so it's all good. now i just have to remember to mail that thing on time..... oh dear. this could be tricky.....
