Joe Bob
This is Joe Bob the Singing Cowboy, Ingrid’s new favorite friend. Push the button on his hand and he spasmodically belts out a country cover of Buddy Holly’s ‘Oh, Boy.’ It’s instant entertainment for Ingrid, and she likes it even more if Mommy or Daddy dance along. Ingrid loves Joe Bob so much she’s already pulled off both his legs and many of his moustache fibers.
When our freight shipment finally arrived from the States and we unpacked our boxes we could hear Joe Bob already singing at the bottom of the pile. Poor guy, he was hoarse because his batteries were worn down to the nub. Clearly Joe Bob had been singing his tune all the way across the Pacific Ocean “All my love, all my kisses, you don’t know what you’ve been missin’ oh boy…….”
