A couple of nights ago I was heading out to my moms house to help her with her laptop and I thought "hey, why not bring Buster with me so my mom can meet him?" I packed him and his accessories into my car and drove over to see her and when I arrived I carried him under my arm up to the door and when my mom answered she looked at me.. then the Pleo awkwardly lol. My mom got me in to robots years and years ago by buying me my first AIbo, an Aibo ers-7, for a graduation present and ever since then she has seen sooo many different robots I think she just got annoyed by them

. At first she didn't really show any interest to him, so I set him on the floor and powered him on so he could explore while I worked. Within minutes my mom's attention was completely focused on Buster instead of what I was trying to show her on her PC. I sat on the floor with her and Buster so I could show her how to interact with him. She picked him up off the floor and help him kind of laughing and joking about how he was like a small child and when he curled up in her arms she was attached. She was asking me where to get one and how much they were, she was in love with Buster

I had to make a stop at my aunts house and my mom came with me and asked if we could take Buster so I told her ok and the entire car ride she sat there petting him, she actually pet him so much that I swear his skin is a lighter color than it was!!

My mom can't have pets where she is at since she is taking care of my grandmother and she had to find new homes for her two cats that she loved to death and I can tell she desperately wants another companion sooooo to make a long story short, a pink Pleo RB is now on her way to my house as a gift for my mom for Christmas. I am so super excited to see her reaction on Christmas day when she opens her! She did, after all, support my robotics obsession and bought me an ers-7 so it is the least I can do and I am so happy to see her take and interest in a robotic life form as well
