Sentimental

I get this out every autumn. It is so very cute and so is the person that gave it to me. My beloved sweetheart gave this to me (the middle figurine) not long after we started dating. This is one of the first gifts I recall getting from him after we were dating. I have had it over 9 years now. I used to collect Cherished Teddies that long ago, however I sold most of my collection when they were going well on ebay several years ago. This is one of the pieces that I would not part with for...well SENTIMENTAL reasons. The little guy is raking leaves. When Josh gave it to me, he said that it was him raking leaves at the park (where we met & worked for many summers in HS and college). He really did have to get a rake out and rake stuff, btw. I took it with me to college and had it right by my bed. Although my tastes have changed and I no longer have little statues sitting on my tables, this one gets a special place during the autumn season. Other than that, it is in my curio. I can't help but smile when I see it. HAPPY AUTUMN!!
