How the Bear got her Name



My Daughter and Rebecca Lynn with their "Stitch Bears", both at age 3 months

Rebecca is the daughter of one of my closest friends from High School. After graduation we stayed close, we were both stay at home Mom's and had our children around the same time. When Rebecca was born I got her a "baby Stitch bear" and she did the same for me when my little girl was born. Stitch was instantly a cherished keepsake. When my daughter was 3, my friend was killed in a car accident along with her husband and two children. The depth of loss when you loose a best friend is unimaginable. You loose the person you trusted all your deepest secrets to, and your inside jokes are shared now with only bitter sweet memories. I miss them each and every day. From their death I learned not to take for granted any single day, each day is a gift. I live my life with no regrets. So in honor of our friendship, I chose the name of our precious keepsake, "Stich Bear".
When I logged into Yahoo for the first time, I mispelled "Stitch", I chose to keep it as a distinction, so you wouldn't confuse me with all the other "stitch's" out there! *wink* Now Ya know how the bear got her Name!
PEACE LOVE AND HAPPINESS, Stich
