Teddy Bear Love
He sits there in the corner waiting for the day when he will be presented as a gift from me to little Brittny. I do hope she will treasure him for years to come, that little lilac colored bear I made for her. He came from my heart, with all the love I could stuff inside him. He is waiting for hugs and kisses from Brittny, to be loved until he is but tatters of material and loose stuffing. That is what teddy bears live their lives for…to be loved unconditionally, taken everywhere, slept with, and cried with for many years. Perhaps she will keep this teddy bear until she is a mother herself. Maybe she will stuff him (or what’s left of him) in a box under her bed so she will always remember someone loved her enough to create him for her once upon a time. She celebrates her very first birthday May 18th, 2008. She is my angel: blond hair, blue eyes, and just adorable. Part of me can’t wait to part with this bear, but part of me wants to hug him myself, transferring my love to him so he can give it back to her. That’s why I created him. A teddy bear means love.
