Beloved purple truck.

Cal always has 1 toy that never leaves his side. And they usually rotate every month or so. Well. purple truck has definitely had the longest run out of any toy. Luke & Lars even tried to give Cal a replacement top toy - a new John Deere tractor - and although he loves it, "pur truck" is still holding the top spot. He sleeps with it, eats with it and takes it EVERYWHERE. This silly little truck has caused us lots of stress... We've torn the house apart looking for it too many times to count, bedtime has been delayed by hours many nights cause purple truck is missing, we searched a furniture store high and low one afternoon cause we thought we left it in there (only to find it in the car), and I spent one afternoon and over an hour with 2 very tired kids going back to Rite Aid, Old Navy & Target retracing our steps trying to figure out where we left it, only to find it at our last stop, Target - sitting exactly where we left it... on the ledge above the bathroom sink where we safety put it while washing our hands.

And here it is. Thought I better document with a pic so we have sometime to look back on the day that purple truck leaves us. It's going to be "gray truck" soon since all the paint is peeling off.

A love for all things purple... These are purple truck's friends - "purple hot rods"
