I can't believe you all your stuffed animals the same name. I would have to give them different names. But I wouldn't ever be a collector of anything. I'm not too much into things.

My children, Terry, Terry, Terry and Teri don't have a problem with the bears all sharing a name. Thanks for reviewing :)

Are they dressed in terrycloth?

Of course. And, seeing that our surname is Bull, there is no shortage of Terry Bull puns to go around.

Thank you, Craig. My collecting passion are antique greeting cards. I buy and sell and have fun creating a collection of the ones I like the best. Maybe I can write about them someday. Great and fun read.

That would make a most interesting story, I'm sure, Melissa. I'd love to read it. I have precious few (well none, really) things from my childhood. My memories of my parents are either in my head, or in a single biscuit tin that used to belong to my mother. In it are a few cards sent between family and friends, and I find them fascinating. They bear little resemblance to greeting cards of today. Most grateful, Craig.

I like your 10-10-6-6-10 poem, Craig. I always notice your format because you are so good with meter and rhyme. Your cleverness and humor are what stand out the most. But your format is always spot on. I find that remarkable, and I have been meaning to mention it.
We have many arctophiles in my family. I did not know what to call my little collectors. I have huge bags full of teddy bears, trying to protect them from dust.

Look after them, Debbie. I am quite disappointed I don't still have the one teddy bear that was with me throughout most of my childhood. Not to mention they could one day be very valuable, quite apart from sentimental value. Thank you for the lovely comments, you are most kind.
Craig
