Everyone Needs a Friend

A few days ago I posted about my new stuffed bee, as of yet unnamed but affectionately called Honey. I love my bee dearly. He is a great cuddling partner in bed and an even better pillow. He makes me smile whenever I see his eternally cheerful face.

But I knew that inside his little buzzing heart, he must have been crying. Why, the rest of my stuffed animals here are all of the bear variety -- mostly panda, but occasionally Rilakkuma. As it was, he was the sole outsider, the only foreigner in my bamboo land. I sympathized with his situation. Everybody wants a friend.


Hello.

Meet Horton.



I don't know much about Horton yet, but I do know that the instant I saw him in the store, I knew that nobody in the entire world could love him more than I would. And perhaps my Bee.



I'm praying I'm reunited with my best friend soon.
