Sam Fridays: Sam and the Everlasting Gobstopper

This is Sam:

Sam!

He’s kinda wet in this photograph; we’d given him a bath.

This? This is the Everlasting Gobstopper:

The Everlasting Gobstopper is Sam’s favorite toy of all time. It’s mine, too, because, unlike the first fuzzy toy that we got Sam, this one has miraculously survived being torn apart and having its fuzzy innards splayed all over the yard. Harrah AND Sam have both tried to tear this toy apart, but they just can’t seem to.

This is what the Gobstopper looks like when I throw it in the air, take a photo with a really fast shutter speed, and then photoshop the image a bit:

Makes a great photograph, eh?

Sam really likes this toy; he gets really super excited every time I pick it up and make it squeak. I throw it, and he brings it back to somewhere like my vicinity - usually about 5-7 feet to my right. He hasn’t quite got the hang of ‘fetch’ yet, but it’s OK. Look how much he likes the Gobstopper:
