IS WEBKINZ REAL?

This question has been addressed many times in the past 6 months since I purchased my first Webkinz. A sable and white Collie, of course. It was a way to further communicate with my older granddaughter--we play games together online and discuss various ways to take care of our cyberpets.

I was at a Very Expensive home the other day, beautifully and tastefully decorated with lots of light and art and Beautiful Items. In the front window of the drawing room (I'm thinking it musta been called that, or the "parlor," because there was no TV set in there), there was a lovely pedestal with a pretty spider plant, its baby runners cascading halfway down.
I tried to tell the homeowner that I have the Very Same pedestal and plant in MY Webkinz room! Somehow, she just didn't understand....

My daughters tell me that Webkinz is not Real. I Know that. I really do.

Do you also know that you Never have to dust in Webkinz World? And there are no dirty dishes. The pets Only go to the bathroom whenever I want them to...None of this "hitting the door" over and over again until SOMEone pays attention...And they NEVER bark.

I guess it's real if you believe in it...lots of people don't believe God is real, and while I've never actually met Him face to face--I believe He is very real indeed. And I bet in heaven there are no dirty dishes either...

Ah, but we HAVE met Him facetoface! It may not have been in the "form" that you expected, but we can see God facetoface everyday if we only allow our spirits that opening....

And there probably ARE some dirty dishes in heaven...For those of you who actually Enjoy the task...
