Draggy, tell me the tales that to me were so dear long long ago

Draggy is...my favorite Dragon. I received it from St. Nicholas (my sweet lovely mom) last year. I admit, I have one single vice -- stuffies! I love them and I have a huge collection of them. Received as gifts or bought I love them all. Stuffies are, at any special ocassion, the perfect gift for me. Stuffies, jewelry and flowers - I love them equally:)

Draggy...draggy is a green, yellow and pink colored plush dragon. He's very cute and when pressed on his left arm he sings the following song: Long long ago by Thomas Haynes Bayly. Unfortunately I can't find the song on the internet to post it here. There are a couple of versions of it but non resembles the one my Draggy sings:)

Today i tried to draw Draggy and here's what I've got:




Of course,as you can imagine, Draggy is much cuter and sweeter than my drawing:)

~~ Do you have a favorite stuffie? If you do, does it have a name, a story?

Inspiration



~~ After my grandpa died I discovered me and him shared a common passion for quotes. After he passed away I found on his desk a small collection of quotes that he had cut from some magazines. I took them and sticked them inside a small notebook.
~~ In the last couple of years I have gathered like 3 thick notebooks of handwritten quotes, gathered from the books I've read, magazines, songs, etc.
~~ Every time I look inside these notebooks I find inspiration, strength, hope and wisedom in them.

~~ I'll share a few from my grandpa's notebook with you:

"A lie that heals is better than the truth that hurts." - Sun Tzu


"Ask much from yourself but ask nothing from the others." - Confucius


"In the end we will not remember the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends" - Martin Luther King


"Mothers are the only flowers that never wither" - Jean Gastaldi

~~ On another note: if you're wondering what's with that picture, it is my latest drawing. My best friend asked me to draw Flounder, Ariel's best friend. So here it is, my version of Flounder:)

~~ And a song for you:) Fink - This is the thing
