Webkinz love

Oh my boy and his Webkinz. He loves them so very much. He got his first one for Christmas (thank you Aunt Tabitha and Uncle Aaron). Now he has 6 and is completely hooked. He loves them online, but he adores them in person. He carries them around and loves on them. It became very real to him on Feb 4 when Crocky had his birthday. Eric said, "Is it really for real his birthday?" I think that made them seem alive to him. He carried Crocky around all day, and Crocky even homeschooled with us. Now at least one Webkinz is always present during our homeschool.
A week or two ago, we went to the park with our little friend Lauren. Eric asked me if he could take his Webkinz with him. I told him that he couldn't take them to the park, but that they could ride in the car with us. You would think my child had won the lottery. Look at his face.



We got him this one for Valentine's Day, and here he is going to school with us. Eric put him in this block wagon. The blocks were his food in case he got hungry.


I try to work them in to our lesson whenever possible. This is pretty easy with our math lessons. Here he is trying to make sure there is enough ice cream for the Webkinz who have come to the ice cream shop.
