Description
This was a Christmas Gift from the very kind and thoughtful Jeff Wedding. I am guessing it is now known that I am a bit of a Groot fan, as Jeff did an excellent job finding a perfect Christmas gift for me. It was definitely one of the top gifts I received for the year; therefore, I am very thankful for this thoughtful and kind gesture. Jeff sent a little background for this piece and let me know that Erik Fidel is the west coast Ringo from The Fab Four tribute band (in addition to performing with a couple of other bands in CA). Jeff said Erik started selling these pieces when Covid shut down gigs, but continues to sell pieces on ebay. He also said he was able to see the Fab Four tribute band in concert, so that makes this piece even more connected to the music.

The cuteness overload is a bit strenuous for the faint of heart. Thus, if you or anyone you know viewing this piece is known to have heart arrhythmia's such as SVT, Atrial Fibrillation, history of VT/VF, history of torsades de pointe, Second Degree Heart block Type 2, Third Degree Heart Block, known coronary artery disease, or known Wolff Parkinson White syndrome, then please only take the standard 3 second look to help prevent cuteness overload of the heart. (With that being said, this is just a commedic recommendation and in no way has any clinical validity, so if you actually have any heart conditions please speak with your doctor for any and all clinical recommendations.)

Hey!!! Watch the language. This is a PG site. Sheesh. Kids these days. Where do they learn such language?

Well if you were staring down multiple rows of Abilisk teeth, you might say "I AM GROOT" as well. Although, I guess it was thoughtless of me to post such foul language without telling parents to put on ear muffs for the kids. If my distastful display of such foul "I AM GROOT!" language leads to the next United States Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency, then you will have my fully televised appology to the United States people to prevent another round of comic censorship.

" I am Groot" translated as yes indeed. I can't thank him enough for such a thoughtful gift.

Another nice day for a Wedding gift!  The baby puppy dog eyes and the tiny mouth are so affectionately cute.  One day, he too will be adorned with ornaments and lights.

This Groot Sketch might be up there with one of my favorite Wedding gifts, which was a Zojurushi rice cooker. Believe me if you haven't had rice out of a Zojurushi rice maker then you haven't lived.

Happy Holidays to you as well. Again a super big thank you Jeff for everything you sent in that nice bundle. I cant wait to share the other piece as well. Seperately it was fun to look up Erik and find a holiday music video with him in it. Groot was the perfect gift and so was the other piece.

Whoa...! He said it. Not me. Your tone makes me concerned that this "I AM GROOT!" piece is possibly getting a bit out of hand. Now I am second guessing if the senate will be going after this one before I know it lol. On a more serious note, thanks for joining in with the holiday Groot festivities.

Wow, Rick... You went there, didn't you? Jeff and one of my daughters might actually take those as fighting words. I mean, I might think it, but I would never say that out loud lol. Alright, I know what needs to happen. Next years holiday special needs to be a four way royal rumble featuring baby Groot, baby Yoda, baby puppies, and baby babies. It could actually break records for cuteness overload.

It was an exceptional gift. Nothing is better than Groot cuteness overload in the mail.
