Building a Heart

By Misha Crosbe, April 16th, 2019 — I think you were either six or seven and you chose to have your birthday party at Build-A-Bear workshop in the mall with all your friends. You were so excited you just couldn’t wait. What I loved about this is at your party you were taking care of all of your friends, making sure they had everything they wanted. It was just beautiful how focused you were on all of your friends. Do you remember the little heart ceremony they did when you were making or I think picking out your bears? You made a pledge to always be kind and that the bear would be your pal and you two would love each other and take care of each other. You were so excited to have this new friend. We still have Nana Bear, the bear we made with you at your party. She has a purple hat on that you picked. It’s one of my most beautiful memories, how kind you were to everyone. We keep our bear because it’s full of love just like you.
