Family is important to us each in a somewhat different way. But what child does not long for the warm, loving environment of a parent’s nurturing arms at some point in their lives? Later, when the child leaves the home, he or she recalls this feeling and this strengthens the bonds between parent and child, no matter what the distance of their separation.
The slow yet unstoppable plod of Theodore is not unlike that of the progress of the garden which he might well inhabit.

The word Tiki refers to large wooden and stone carvings of humanoid forms originating from Polynesian cultures found in the South Pacific. They are found as far apart as New Zealand, Easter Island and Hawaii. The fearsome god-like carvings served to mark boundaries around significant or ceremonial sites and are often grotesque in appearance.
In the early 20thC, ‘Tiki Culture’ arose in North America. Tiki heads and paraphernalia were used by restaurants and clubs to evoke feelings of relaxation; think Mai Tais, flowery shirts and sunny beaches.

Tutu, the ferocious guard dog and top canine on the block is the victim of a mischievous practical joke. His owner has convinced him that donning a ballerina’s tutu and slipper will garnish even more respect from the other dogs in the neighborhood. Little does he know that they all think this very odd and that perhaps Tutu is going through a phase where he is attempting to connect with his feminine side, of course they dare not point this out to him.
