every child a wanted one
what a wonderful world that would beand I wanted to add this screenshot of the comments that have been made on the source blog.

people here has doubled in my life

I am a Slinky, shiny metal,
no plastic, please. I expand
and contract, walk down stairs
of joy, pleasing all who stop to
play with me. Sometimes just
being an object of delight is
all one need to do or be;
creating laughter is a worthy goal.
