Bunny!

Today, I thought I'd introduce you to Bunny. Bunny is obviously the stuffed animal I'm holding in that picture. So, what's so special about some old, dingy stuffed animal? Let me tell you.

I've had Bunny my entire life, literally. The day after my mother gave birth to me, my father bought her (yes, it's a girl! lol) for me (from what I've been told). And I still have her.

I don't think I'm ever going to get rid of her. She's kind of a comfort for me. It sounds silly, but I don't know what I would do if I lost her. She's the oldest thing I have, but she's my most prized possession.

I think it's more the fact that it was my first gift ever from my father than the fact that I've had her my whole life. I treasure Bunny so much because she's from my father, whom I love and respect deeply.

Do you have anything from your childhood that you've kept and never thrown out?

I have one too! It is a bear named Quala (he is a koala bear ... I know, I was creative with the naming). I bring him up to college with me!! :) The stuffing is all falling out of him, he is kind of hard to sew up any more, but I just love him. It's such a comfort having him around. Especially if I can't sleep at night! I didn't think many people kept it at our age so I'm glad some others do! I think a lot of people just hide it. But I'm proud of my bear! :D
