So Currie has a friend, Revelstoke Kaderly-Demerse, also known as Stoke the Labrador, who has featured prominently on this blog before. Currie decided she wanted to get Stoke something for Christmas and picked out a very lovely gingerbread man tug toy. The problem was, when she got to wrapping it, she decided she might like it for herself, until I caught her in the act:

"I was just making sure it was OK. Really."

Stoke loved it and went about destroying it immediately.

"Boy Mom, that was sure fun!"

"I'll just rest my eyes for a minute."
