    Teddy did not wake me this morning. I was waiting for him to come and jump in my bed but no Teddy! Teddy, where are you? He finally came up when I was in the bathroom. Teddy, where were you? Teddy was chasing a tiny little bug later this morning but I couldn't see it! I don't know what kind of bug it was. But now, Teddy is sleeping on the living room floor, in front of the old, brown recliner. I need to run the vacuum cleaner today and Teddy will disappear when he sees the vacuum!<a class="image
