This is Ted and today is his birthday. My grandmother purchased him with Top Value Stamps and handed him to me the day I was born (or so the story goes), it was love at first sight. (note: If you aren't familiar with Trading Stamps please see The Brady Bunch season 1 episode 15)
We've been through a lot together and there were times when I felt like he was my only friend. He knows all of my secrets and he's always been there to comfort me. He is and will always be my best friend.
The only thing I can't figure out is that Ted turns 5o today and I'm only 42....it must have something to do with bear years. : )
