OMG  I haven't even read the whole story and I'm in love!  First of all, i LOVE Hippos.  Chris bought be a stuffed Hippo (named Bertold) one day as a suprise.  He's the only stuffed animal that lives in the house.  So, I'm hippo-prone anyways.  I can't wait to read the rest of the story.  Chris gave me a run-down and I can't believe it.  Poor little guy!
 
OK.  I'm done gushing for now.  
 
 
FOR NOW
