mr. bear's debut

on an earlier post, i mentioned Ryder's best bear friend. he has come to be known as mr. bear around here.

Ryder will lay in his crib and stare at this bear forever. he squeaks and moans at him. i swear this bear must be the world's most interesting bear.

i imagine them conversing for hours. shooting the shit like they both meet at the neighborhood bar on a weekly basis. Ryder's drink of choice is milk, while mr. bear prefers something a bit more stiff, apple juice. they exchange ideas and talk philosophically. at the end of the night, they both agree to meet there again. same time. same place.

the magical mr. bear.

the little boy that's mesmerized by mr. bear.
it's the start of a beautiful friendship.
