It has been a very sad time for my family. My Sal Long has gone to heaven to live at "Baby Jesus's House." When I heard this news I managed to make my Mommy who was very sad at the moment smile. I am not quite sure why she smiled through the tears so quickly, all that I said was, "Since Sal Long went to Baby Jesus's House - I get all her Jelly Beans, okay Mommy."

Flashback - here I am at Christmas holding onto my "Baby Seal" that Sal Long picked out for me...

There is nothing more precious than the love that Tommy has shown his entire life for Baby Seal. It is his eternal bond to his dear Sal Long.....along of course with the jelly beans. He is one of a kind and Choozie and I love him 24/7/365/60/60 etc...like all the time...:-)
