When I was 3, my family moved cross-country from DC to California. Coincidently, my imaginary friends, Gagar and Ass moved with us as well! Gagar and Ass lived in the air conditioning vents in my bedroom, and we would have long conversations each night. At some point, Gagar and Ass had to leave, and they told me they were going on a long trip, never to return. Ahhh, but they were wrong! They have returned, 40 years later, in my neice's life: she is 3 years old and her imaginary friends are "Gaga" and "Magently!" Cool, eh?
