Bear

I'd like to introduce you to a lesser known family member. This is Bear. Upon moving to Canada we were in the process of arranging insurance with State Farm. After a visit to the office the representative handed Stuntwoman who was just 1 years old at the time this Bear. Bear has been in our lives for 2 years and goes everywhere we go. I tried to go back and request a backup as we have had several close calls with Bear's disappearance. But it had been recalled for eyes falling out in the US. Thank goodness we haven't lost our Bear and it's eyes are still there!

Poor Bear, you look like you have mange.

When people ask Stuntwoman what Bear's name is, she replies matter of factly "Bear" However recently she has renamed Bear to "Koochie Bear". I have no idea where this idea came from or what it means. It is pretty funny to see her and her brother take Bear and make it talk with a gruff voice.

Today I had a fun conversation with her about bear.

Mommy: "Is Bear a Girl or Boy?"
Stuntwoman: "Bear is a Bear."
Mommy: "I know but is Bear a Girl Bear or Boy Bear?"
Stuntwoman: "He's a Girl Bear."

Well that solves that mystery!

That's great to know "he's a girl!" Stuntwoman is precious.

As they say "out of the mouths of babes." How wonderful that the bear he or she, can be either sex! Oh, to have the wisdom of a child again!
