One Old Bear

 Mom was sorting through her fabric stash yesterday and came upon her Knickerbocker teddy bear that her mom and dad gave her for her very first Christmas!   He was inside a cedar chest underneath all of the fabric and she forgot that she put him there.  What a nice surprise☺

How cool is that!    He is a true antique!

Happy Wednesday!

Love ya lots♥
Duke

  9. Java Bean: "Ayyy, Duke, your tío Knickerbocker Bear is very cute!"
    Chaplin: "Our Dada has a bunch of his old stuffies here, too, but none from when he was that young. Apparently Dennis stole one once but fortunately he just left it out in the yard without destroying it. After that, Dada put them up way out of reach of curious dogs ..."

  12. That bear is a true treasure, Duke. Our Mom needs to explore her mother's cedar chest that is stored in the basement - solid mahogany - who knows what she might find

  13. I love finding things from ours and our Boys past. I have been sorting out Baby clothes from Eldest for his son, who is now five months old, to wear and it has been great going down memory lane. Your bear is lovely and wonderful to have it from when you were little and given to you by your parents. DH and I still have ours and we have kept the Boys Bears safe for them too. Happy Wednesday. Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

  14. Mom has some special things like that saved in good spots too. Those kind of things are treasures to our humans.

  15. I think Mom is a very special person for keeping the teddy bear for so long. And so well maintained.💗

    Makes me wonder what's the longest thing I have with me.

    Play nice with teddy🐻,
    Julia
