Evidence: Something I will always treasure

 That precious teddy bear sitting on my bed is the most important item that I
possess. It’s not about the money value, but about the sentimental value. The
teddy bear was given to me by my father; it was given to me when I was 9 years
old. The teddy bear was gift for me as souvenir when we went to New York with all
my family. It was bought and specially made for me in the Build-A-Bear Workshop,
Inc. which makes this teddy bear much more special. You might be asking yourself
why, well this is “where best friends are made”. (Build-A-Bear Workshop Inc. 1997-
2013).

“Build-A-Bear Workshop Inc. is an American retailer that sells teddy bears and
other stuffed animals and characters. Customers go through an interactive process
in which the stuffed animal of their choice is assembled and adapted to their own
preferences during their visit to the store. Build-A-Bear Workshop is the largest
chain operating in this style.” (Wikipedia® 2020)
My teddy bears name is Jackelyn, it is very beautiful. It has a very unique pattern
with a lot of hearts, rainbows and little cute details covering the purple fluffy fabric
called Cotton.

I have never been asked to sell it, but I have been asked to throw it away since it is
very old. The teddy bear has always been kept very close to me when I was a child,
and thanks to that I have never lost it either.

This item is very special because it costed a lot of hard work from my dad to be
able to gift it to me and I cherish that very much. He is also one of the persons I
most love. The teddy bear goes everywhere I go. Until this very day it has been
brought with me to three countries and almost ten cities.

The teddy bear has been in multiple home videos recorded by me. It has been the
star of many fantasy stories too, which have also been made up by me as a child. I
could stay a million years telling all of the anecdotes and wonderful memories I
have with it, something I will always treasure but I would never finish. So until the
next time!
