When I was a kid (I honestly don’t remember how old I was, but I’m guessing around the 3rd grade age) my siblings and I all got these AMAZING teddy bears. \u00a0They were soft and snuggly and perfect. \u00a0My sister and I got pink and my brothers got brown. \u00a0I remember playing with those bears. \u00a0A. LOT. \u00a0I also remember taking those bears to play with when my Mom would play WallyBall. \u00a0There were high ceilings and we would toss those bears as high as we could until they would touch the ceiling and come tumbling down. \u00a0Over, and over again. \u00a0Up and down. \u00a0I tossed mine too many times because it started to scrape on the marble eyes and the yarn nose started to fray away.<\/p>\n
I remember after playing with my bear for a long time that I was disappointed that mine was not as soft as my older sister and older brother’s bears. \u00a0I couldn’t understand at the time how mine was getting less soft. \u00a0Of course, it was because they were older and didn’t carry it around EVERYWHERE like I did to mine. \u00a0Less wear and tear.<\/p>\n
Well, fast forward a few years and I somehow accumulated one of the brown bears along with my pink bear. \u00a0(My guess is that Nathan didn’t want his so I snatched it up–even though it was pink, it was so incredibly soft still. \u00a0Sorry, Nathan, if I stole it from you–haha!) So the other day Chloe and Josiah were playing and re-discovered these bears. \u00a0And wouldn’t you know, there was a pink one for Chloe and a brown one for Josiah. \u00a0It was like it was meant to be. \u00a0\ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
