By the time Bobby made Eddie’s charcoal smile, Big Shorty was smiling too. Eddie was done! They danced around Eddie admiring their masterpiece.
Dad came out with a camera and took pictures of Eddie and his creators! This was the only picture ever taken with Big Shorty smiling!
After the picture-taking and playing, everyone went home. Patty and Bobby were proud of Eddie! He was much better than they had imagined! They gave Grandma an extra hug for making a nice large red vest for Eddie…which just happened to match the red band on his hat.
