Our friend Gilbert

I met Gilbert a few months to a year ago. He is very polite, friendly, works at a burger stand, is yellow, and has a beak. Yes, Gilbert is a duck.

I don't exactly remember how I met Gilbert but it went something like this. One evening during bath time, the girls were playing around and handed me Gilbert. Well he wasn't Gilbert at the time but we thought what we should name him for that one time and Gilbert just popped into my head. So I suggested that and it stuck. And some how he became my helper in a restaurant. Gilbert and I were making burgers, hot dogs, shakes, and whatever else you might possibly find in a fast food restaurant.

I didn't think the girls would remember the name Gilbert and the next time I was around for bath time they handed me Gilbert, and said "Here's Gilbert." sometimes they even ask for him. It is so funny! Recently i found out they were asking for Gilbert with their Aunt and she had no idea who Gilbert was. That gave me a good laugh, I told her he was a duck. She said she was so confused.

Tonight when it was bath time they brought out Gilbert. This time poor Gilbert needed a bath. Kenleigh says to Joce "Joce, you wash his body, I'll wash his clothes."


Joce kept putting her hand on the Gilbert and I told Kenleigh to do it too.

So I have know Gilbert for some time and he is such a good friend that I thought he should have a post of his own.
