Old Bear

It's time to join again with Dayle at  Simple Pleasures.

My simple pleasure is a teddy bear made and given to me by my older daughter. He is known as 'Old Bear'. He has a special place in my heart.
Two granddaughters love him too, and he has caused much mischief and laughter.
He has been with my youngest granddaughter for a while, and you will see in the photo how he came back home!

Old Bear is a bearer of love.

  1. What a cutie pie! Is that a broken arm though? When my daughter was little she loved one of her baby dolls (originally belonged to me) to the point of it needing new everything, including hair. :) Glad Old Bear made it home. He certainly is a simple pleasure.

  2. Was she playing doctors and nurses? He has a very well bandaged arm!

  3. My sister really loved playing with Old Bear.
    I played doctors with her once and she really enjoyed pretending that he had a broken arm. By the way, thanks for letting me borrow that bandage when I had strained my leg at my netball carnival. Hope your going well.

  9. How cute is that?? I'm like the others and want to know what happened to Old Bear's arm.

    This has to be one of the sweetest simple pleasures this week.

  10. Somewhere in a closet is a toy squirrel with a bandaged arm....given to our oldest son when he broke both bones in his right arm the first recess of first grade! That was about 25 years ago!

  13. Old Bear is a real cutie! I love this, "Old Bear is a bearer of love."

    I'm reminded of my childhood teddy bear (wish I still had him). He had one eye. Nowadays, he wouldn't be considered "safe" for children because of his glued on eyes, but he was precious to me.

    Blessings,
    Joan
