Mum, What's Wrong?

E: Mum, what's wrong?
Me: I'm just not very happy this week, honey.
E: When I am not happy, I like to hug a monkey. Hug a monkey, hug it tight, hug it 'til you feel alright*
Me: You're right. Can you get me a monkey?
E: I'll be your monkey.

*from the kids' show Poko

Aww...what a sweetie! Here's hoping your monkey squeezing brightens the rest of your week!

Awww! Did you totally melt when she said she'd be your monkey?!!! I hope that your monkey hug does help!
Poko was one of our favourites here, too, until they changed kids cbc to all the super lame shows and got rid of Poko! My kids don't even watch tv anymore because of that. And that's by their own choice! Don't get me wrong, they do watch movies and play PS3, just no tv anymore since there's nothing good on anymore. Boo.
I hope your weekend is happier :)

E's such a sweetheart. Please give her and S big hugs from us. :)

My kids loved Poko too.
