An Unusual Love

During a recent mission trip to Ecuador, my brother Paul bought a small gift for Riley: this fuzzy wuzzy bear made of Llama hair. After much debate about whether to attempt to wash it before giving it to her I decided, "Awww, she's #2!", and handed the bear to her. An unlikely love affair began in that moment and she has carried this fuzzy bear everywhere since! When she spots it across the room it as if her long lost love has returned from war and she runs(waddles) as fast as her little legs will carry her to throw her arms around it. We are still deciding on a name... and what to do when it begins to fall apart! :)
