I tried to post a pic to pixabay but it was too small.
I would have loved for you all to see these 2 puppies.
Alternate Title - Wallace Berry Cream Puffs
More than a soft toy, she kept these Puffies for years; she kept them free and safe. I left, right..left..right, out of her everyday - her sis marched right out of her life, but her Puffies so proud on a shelf; its shelf life, who knows, but they’ve spent nearly half a century with her. Wallace Berry Cream Puffs stayed in the palm of her sister’s hand, never looking forward or back, never going far. This soft toy enjoyed the chatter, laughter, love of her new owner. Reminders of a faraway home, a forever after, the sweet kiss of a 5 year old. She held her Puffies tight; tighter the memories of so long ago. It all matters - not the toy, yes the toy, yes the girl. The small basset hounds, coffee brown floppy ears, cream bodies (like wool), and ample pink snouts. The sailor in me knew these two would be well-cared for. This child held her responsibility in high-regard. There’d be other collectibles, but sis never neglects the treasures of the past.
