Keanu's special teddy

My mum gave me a teddy bear when I was born. It is very special to me. Her name is Gracie.

She kind of looks like Bob Marley without the dreads. She is brown with black eyes. She was fluffy until I kept on playing with her. She is about 20cm tall.

My mum got it for me when a lady came to my mum’s work,Westpac and gave it to her. She is about 11yrs old.

It is a taonga to me because my mum gave it to me when I was born. I have loved it ever since.

It is very special and it always will be.
