Meet French (and French)

Holden found this little stuffed dog in Cash's toy basket and immediately fell in love with him. While he played with him one weekend morning, I asked Holden what his name was. He matter of factly told me "French" without skipping a beat. He then explained, "He likes to jump and play ball." Later on he found the little cat in his toy closet and said it was French's friend. When I asked what his name was he said, "French too (or is it French 2?)." Although the kitty friend has not shown up much anymore, French is very much a part of our family now. Holden sometimes sleeps with him, and plays with him often. His tone always turns into a loving one when he sees him, "Hey Mom, there's French!"
