“How is it that you are here an hour earlier than usual? Were you missing me?”
“I miss you all the time, Button, and you must believe me. I wish I could take you along with me everywhere. Do you like the name Button?”

“It’s unusual. Yes, I must say I like it. How did you come up with this name for me?”

“Well—I had quite a few names in mind. So I drew chits and Button was the name that came up. By the way, I think your button nose is very cute.”

“Are you making fun of my nose?”

“Not at all. That’s one of the things that make you really cute…”

“What were the other names you had in mind for me?”

“Let’s see—one was Brownie, the others were Smiley, Cuddly, Lovely. I must say I like Button the most too.”
