Ditter, where do you find these things!!!! My oldest son lost his stuffed/floppy dog during a move and it never did surface. My younger son had a white teddy bear named "Paul" (I don't know why) and he took it to college with him, leaving it up on a bookshelf for all to see, and someone stole it (why?). Now I have a grandson who is in South Africa at a boys' choir school (wants to learn the structure of African music) and he has his very little panda bear with him... at age 14. The other boys like it to the point you wonder if they "gave" theirs up rather than be teased. I bet the kids who accept their teddy as OK make great fathers! Having said that my DH is one of 3 boys and he never had a teddy or any other stuffed toy (but that was during the depression).

So glad Ah Ah is home. The guy who had him was probably cleaning out his kid's stuff and decided to post it all. My son lost his lovey in a grocery store. We searched three times and couldn't find it. We never understood where it could have gone. If another child picked it up, wouldn't a parent recognize that something so beat up is obviously loved by and important to someone?? And why would a parent let their child keep something so germy as a stuffed animal? Lots of questions, no answers..... but he's home and that's what counts.
