Jaguar’s Birthday Memorial #2‘
King of the Monsters
We introduced Jaguar to Godzilla early on in his childhood. Because of his love of dinosaurs, we bought him his first Godzilla VHS tape, played it for him, and, as they say, Jag was never the same. Godzilla immediately became his favorite monster. We soon had a library of every Godzilla movie ever made. We bought him small Godzillas, big Godzillas, and one giant Godzilla. The giant Godzilla was an inflatable that stood 6 ft tall. He’d stage it in the middle of his room so when I would go in and turn the light on, it would scare the living daylights out of me!!! After several close “heart attacks”, I finally deflated the thing! It was his favorite character to draw and he drew it over and over again (drawings I saved and I’m still looking for 
). It came as no surprise, therefore, that when Jag’s items were returned from Afghanistan, along with his Bible, there was also Godzilla.
