It's just a little old stuffed toy.
It encapsulates many aspects of life.
It speaks of innocent beginnings, time and tides encountered along the way.
It recalls precious memories, bitter disappointments, loss, and if one is very fortunate, a finding of the way home again, to be held forever in the tender love of one grown beyond.
Besides, I love the hat.

Perfect. I have several teddies, old and new. My cat steals them!
ReplyDeleteBetween my wife and the kids, I seem to be surrounded by the Teddies and other stuffed creatures. The new ones don't mean much, the older the more they've absorbed of our lives I think.
