Marie thought Peter would appreciate a season’s greetings sponsor-a-day while he is away from home. So, a very Happy Christmas (as you Brits say) to you, Peter!

This is the December photo in our 2010 calendar, and one of my personal favorites:

    I often wonder what it is that Foxie see’s or thinks when she looks into the eyes of her trolls.

    Happy Christmas to you Peter and Marie! I’m sorry you have to be away from home, at this time, return home soon and safely. Foxie is one special chimpanzee, I have a few favorite videos of Foxie, go to these dates in the blog, if you and Peter haven’t already seen them, that is:

    12-12-08
    My favorite moment, when you hear the clicking of Foxie’s fingernails as she grooms her troll doll’s eyes.

    8-8-09
    Foxie’s birthday party and Diana singing Happy Birthday!

    10-4-09
    Foxie’s introduction to Doris, the giant troll doll. Amazing moment, before I could hear what was going on downstairs, she seemed to pick up that something was about to happen and she was right.

    Thank you Marie for thinking of this while I am away. I know you shouldn’t really have favourites but Foxie was the first chimp at CSNW that I saw, so it means a lot. Thanks Diana for the cracking photo. Thanks for the messages Jeani and Candy and Happy Christmas to everyone at CSNW and all the bloggers. (I know its early but….) I’ll be home soon so catch up with you all later, thanks, all the best Peter.

    Happy Christmas, Peter. Foxie has always been my chimp pal. I love them all but she has touched my heart.

      Thanks Theresa, I know what you mean, its the loving way she adores her trolls and also carries them around with her. It does make you wonder what she is thinking and also of her offspring and how she misses them. Happy Christmas to you as well.
