One of their Christmas presents was the wooden pull-toy Noah's Ark that was mine (and my brother's) when we were kids. Somehow all the tiny pairs of animals made it through the decades. My brother reports that out of all the gifts I sent, the ark won Christmas! And now they'll know how the snails made it on!Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375684657483536810.post-66267881685510772802022-02-19T07:54:33.695-06:002022-02-19T07:54:33.695-06:00Wow...what a LOT of wonderfulness you have going o...Wow...what a LOT of wonderfulness you have going on, Irene!
