They can be helpful 

They protect our children

They look out for the smaller ones 

They show us how to relax

 
They  "converse" with each other

They help you when you're down

They are great at decorating for the Holidays 

They have "great" expectations

 They are Patriotic

They are happy to "test" the water

They love their "teddies"

They know who's "BOSS"

AND  - They know when we need a good LAUGH!
