My Teddy Bear

My Little Teddy Bear

My little teddy bear is my icon from the past. It was given to me on my 0^th birthday.

It is dark yellow with black oval eyes and one brown nose. You could probably fit it into a lunch box.

I can not sleep without him, he’s my friend. I’m never going to give him away, not even for $1000.00.

One time in England at Disneyland, at a little gift shop I accidentally left him there. Dad was looking everywhere then at last we found him. He was in the gift shop on the floor.

I was sad when he went all dark yellow. So we put him in the washing machine. But silly me, 5 years later he was dark yellow again so I put him in the washing machine. But this time it did not come off. I did not care, he was still him. He is still my friend.

One day at Dad’s I could not find him so we went to the Recycling Centre. In the box there was a big teddy. I said I wanted him.

“OK, how much is the teddy bear?”

“$1:00. Here you go.”

When we got home guess what? I looked under my pillow.

Teddy!
