Olivia has a lot of toys–balls of various types, beanie babies, plastic spring-toys, wand toys, etc., but none are as precious to her as her finger-rockets. She dug one out of the grandkids’ toy box one day and it became her favorite toy. She bounces and leaps all over the place playing with that toy.
After a while the sponge started wearing out, but she still played with it. We decided she needed a fresh new finger rocket. So we bought a packet of them. They were delivered yesterday. Olivia actually ran to the door when she heard the package hit the porch. I brought it in and she was super interested in it. We opened it, removed the finger strap from one rocket thinking it might be a choking hazard and she grabbed that rocket and began to gleefully celebrate her good fortune to now have two of these spongy toys to bat around, toss in the air, and, yes, even hug. Happy calico! Happy mom and dad!
I love it when they choose a favorite toy!
