As I've mentioned in previous blogs, your favourite toy as a toddler was a little pink dog which you named "Plonk the somersault Dog" or just "Plonk" for short. You decided on that name because when you threw him in the air he sometimes turned over like a somersault. Plonk went everywhere with you and you wouldn't go to bed at night without Plonk beside you.
One night disaster struck...we couldn't find Plonk anywhere!
We turned the house upside down but to no avail.
We were a little worried as Dad had picked Plonk up at a garage sale so we didn't like our chances of finding a replacement.
However, our luck held out and, lo and behold, Dad found a replica at another garage sale a few days later.
We quietly snuck him into your room but you were on to us!! You knew straight away that it was not Plonk!
It didn't seem to matter though...you adopted this replacement very easily and named him Blonk!
The photo shows you with your many, many soft toys. Plonk is the pink dog on top of the monkey's head on the left.
