I love how many of us love elephants (6 + Mascot Mentioned)

Scout05 · April 2010

I'm thinking (no offense to Humphrey) that maybe the elephant would be a great TTCAL 6+months mascot.

My reason is this: Elephants understand grief. They embrace the bereaved and stand in support of them as long as they need. That's us. That's what we are all about.

(I have a whole long sappy blog post about this as well)

What do you all think? I would be happy to make badges!

(If you think hell no, you Humphrey cheating ho, I really won't be offended. I promise!)

I see no reason why Humphrey and the elephant cannot coexist. Make a badge! I need some different stuff in my siggy anyway. I need to get rid of the riding the BFP wave badge anyway, since I ain't ridin' no wave of no BFPin' sort anytime soon.

Ooh ooh badge!

I love elephants, too. Have you ever seen one panic about almost stepping on a mouse? They totally understand compassion.

Allison, have you read Water for Elephants? It's really good.

I think you already know my answer! Heck yeah!

I didn't know that about them! I guess it makes another good reason why I love them! That's so fitting!

Sorry about all the exclamation points, lol.

I think an elephant badge would be great and most appropriate. I'm not that into humphrey.

Here are a couple:

And I will play around with more after dinner!

Ooops, I will post codes then too. You can always right click and save to desktop, and then resize or what have you in tinypic.

Did you see that adorable baby elephant stuck in the mud on the Life series last week? So sweet!

Scout05 · April 2010

OR!!

I think I like the little boogie guy best; I'm putting him in my siggy!

So cute! My sig needs to be perked up since I think I'm done with testing badges for a while.

Those are so, so cute. I'm not a 6+er, so I won't yoink one, but I think this is a great mascot, and a great sentiment, and those are really adorable badges.

I hope the elephants usher in a "herd" of BFPs (haha, see what I did there?)

dondraandluis · April 2010

I love the dancing one! Soo cute! I'm stealing him too.

This is a WONDERFUL idea! I feel that many of us can relate to elephants. Should we name him? or her?

I love the elephant! I have been thinking of going with elephant nursery bedding when we do have a baby.

superluper · April 2010

I love it!! p.s. have you ever listened to the Rachael Yamagata song "Elephants" It's crushingly beautiful (& sad).

I am a big fan of your blog in general and I was especially moved by your January elephant piece, which I found when I was feeling particularly heartbroken as well. The elephant is an ideal mascot and the booty shaking one is freakin' fantastic!
