alphabet story...

A little girl once had a favorite stuffed animal.

But not only was this her favorite stuffed animal, it was her most favorite item she had ever owned.

Coming from a small family she liked playing with her sisters but nothing compared to the stuffed animal.

Don't ever under estimate the power of a kid and their most prized possession

Even after getting so many different kinds of clothes and toys this was her imagination center.

Forest was the name of the stuffed bear she cherished so much and he was easy to be amicable to.

Gump wasn't the last name before you even start laughing at it.

However, the little girl was very fond of "Forest Gump" the movie.

I never intended for the story to get off course so lets jump back to its name was Forest.

Just cause its name wasn't so original he always had a journey to share with the little girl.

Kids seem to be oblivious to the outside world when they are playing.

Later in life is when they start caring what people think of them and forget how easy it was to get lost with just themselves and a stuffed bear.

Mostly though, Forest gave the little girl comfort and a friend when she felt left out or alone.

None of her family really understood how she could be so entertained by a dragged around stuffed animal but they didn't say anything because they didnt want to start an altercation.

Overlooking the weirdness of having to take Forest every where they went, the family was just happy that the little girl was happy.

People would stare with deprecate when the little girl would run around the playground having the time of her life with Forest.

Quietly and demure at night the little girl would snuggle with Forest to fall asleep because she was terrified of the dark.

Running around with him clutched in her fist made him start being old and worn out.

Starting to be so worn out so much he was needing a bath more than a couple times a week.

Time would only tell how long Forest would really last with the little girl.

Usually kids are able to keep their favorite items till they become adults so they can look back and remember the times with them.

Vulnerable is what the little girl felt when she lost Forest on a family move.

Wondering when the next time the little girl would finally feel happy again is all the family could do.

X-rays would be the most ridiculous thing to do if they thought she was physically hurt.

Young kids soon grow out of stuffed animals and so did she, but she would never feel contrite because the memorable times she had with Forest.

Zig-zag is how her mind felt for a good while without him, but she knows that she is just thankful she has a special story to share with her kids one day.
