Who Needs Toys?

With a house FULL of every toy imaginable, Katelyn's favorite thing at the moment (aside from Giraffe, of course) is cardboard tubes. Whether they be from toilet paper, paper towels, or Christmas wrap, they get the job done. And the more, the merrier. She carries them all over the house, rolls them back and forth, snuggles with them (and Giraffe), stacks them -- you name it, she does it. She affectionately refers to them as "poob" :) When they start to unravel, she shows her concern by pointing out their "boo boo" and asking me or Dada to fix it. Yesterday, her Auntie Amy gave her an indestructible "poob" that will be able to withstand Katelyn's constant play. However, it was quite long and we were concerned that she would break everything in the house or poke out her little sister's eyes, so Dada cut it into 3 equal pieces (about the size of paper towel tubes). Now she is ecstatic that she has 3 indestructible "poobs" to roughhouse with, and we are grateful that Ashley won't have to sacrifice an eye in the process.
