I have been going through some WordPress weekly photo topics from weeks past and some of them are good. There is one entitled ‘Beloved’, makes me think of my 12 year old daughter and her teddy bear. She has carried that teddy bear in her arms since birth. People would comment about it, questioning why she does that. I always tell them that she’s young and leave her alone, those days will be gone soon and be a distant memory before we know it.

I hope she has the Bear for as long as it’s needed. You’re right: Childhood is fleeting enough as it is.
I think I will miss that bear as much as she will. We all call it by name, Lorraine … ans she gets talked about as if she’s a living family member.
How sweet 🙂 Let her enjoy it, yes – no hurry to grow up!
