Earlier, his dad had nicknamed my baby nephew Mike "Michael Hickabee," after the presidential candidate Mike Huckaby, and because Baby Mike had the hiccups. Luke (big brother) and Mel (big sister) liked that name. One day they were playing with him. They were calling him "King Hickabee of All Nations," and had outfitted him with a throne (his little swing,) and a toy scepter. He showed his benevolent appreciation of his adoring subjects by chewing on his scepter with great concentration.
I printed out the first free printable world map I found through Google. I forgot what site it was, but it came out fuzzy, so I wouldn't recommend it anyway.

Love the card and story. The fuzzy details on the map are probably for the best as sharp lines might have distracted from the image and sentiment. It's perfect the way it is.
