Oh. I'd noticed the pocket on his shirt in his first panel, then in the last I wondered if he used something specific to make the bow. I somehow missed the absence of his pocket until I saw the description. ^_^" I think it was just my mind blanking for a moment. Or that I was too interested in wondering whether or not he had sewn a smile on the teddy's face and looking at the progression of wear and stuff.

This is cute. ^_^

...kind'a a, giving is better than receiving kind of thing, where the other kids claimed their love but were rough, and this one wanted to help the teddy and the Teddy loves him.

I think I've shown both types of 'love' before. Not sure which is better, maybe they can both be equal. Playing with a toy might break it, but trying to preserve it will just have it gather dust. I had a large stuffed rabbit as a kid named Toby that I was a little rough with, but not too bad (besides wanting to give him baths, and my mom taking all the stuffing out of him because it got wet). When I finally got him back, I tried to re-stuff him (though I'm not sure how to sew up the hole), and sometimes I'll give him a little pat on the head. :3
