They teddy bear...

Sorry for the fuzzy picture... that's what we get these days. The boy is running, CLIMBING, going a million miles a minute so our picture taking is always a bit fuzzy now. Moments before this picture was taken, he was cuddling this little bear on the chair...

You see, this is MY teddy bear... from when I was a baby! It's been living all cooped up in my cedar chest for who knows how many years. Back in the day when I was packing up and leaving home I got rid of 99.9% of my childhood stuffed animals... all but this bear. I was shuffling through my chest of forgotten treasures and found this bear. So I pulled it out for Tru to play with.

He loves it! He doesn't care that it's dirty and matted down from years of "love" (you know, spit snot, and who knows what else has been on this bear!) He loves it. It makes me happy to see this forgotten bear get a little love again...
