"My Dinner With Gil"

My wife Melanie bought this stuffed animal as a mascot for her first grade class last year. Each student got to take him home for one weekend. Somehow the wear and tear from all the first graders makes him look even more tired than when we bought him. He currently lives out his retirement on a chair in our kitchen/dining room.
