That picture makes me think of two things:

either it is a very ugly hand puppet or there is some concern about prostate cancer.

A few nights ago, I took the girls to a house that is very elaborately decorated for Christmas. We turned our car radio to a certain station and the lights flickered to match the song. (They have four songs, including The Nutcracker and Carol of the Bells, so we were there for about 15 minutes.)

As we were sitting in the car, freezing, watching the show, Emma saw a small creature walk across the driveway. She started crying because she thought it was a cat and she doesn't feel that cats should be outside of houses where they can get hurt. She watched the cat go across the lawn, then started screaming, because it wasn't a cat, it was an opossum.

She didn't care if the opossum was out in the cold and stopped crying.

That rat is uglier than the opossum. Just looking at the picture makes my skin crawl.

You don't look like a rat, you look like a little girl.

Which likely explains the expression on Mr. Rat's face.

(I was gonna be all-inclusive and leave the gender-specific abbreviation out of the last sentence...except that if it were Mz. Rat, she would likely not have tooooo many concerns re prostate cancer...)
