Bert's Boo-boo

There are a few posts that I can't believe

 I have forgotten to blog about sooner. 

This one is one of them.

When Piper's Nana and Poppy Pope came to visit in September,

they gave her the infamous Ernie and Bert (Dip) dolls.

They have been a permanent fixture in Piper's arms ever since.

What I have forgotten to mention,

is that after only having them for a few days,

we caught Blue chewing on BERT!

Thankfully we caught him before he could do any significant damage,

but Bert's nose was a little worse for wear.

That happened more than 2 months ago.

EVERY morning Piper still starts her day 

by telling me all about the boo-boo on Dip's nose. 

I don't think there's any point in trying to repair it now. 

She has just learned to accept him as "Dip with a boo-boo"

and still loves him unconditionally.

I kind of like the lesson learned here.

We're not perfect,

but Piper will love us anyway!

Dip's boo-boo on his nose.

Piper showing you where it is,
in case you missed it!

A kiss makes it all better!

And a giant squeeze of course!
