In the bedroom, Damon is still obediently watching cartoons.
Bonnie walked over and took his headphones off, "Damon, close your eyes, Mommy Annie has a gift for you."
"What is it?" Damon's little face was filled with anticipation, and he obediently closed his eyes, and even spread his little hands out and held them up in front of his chest.
The fluffy teddy bear landed right in the palm of his hand.
Damon opened his eyes to look and went crazy with joy, "It's my bear, no, it's a new bear!"
"Yeah, do you like it?" Bonnie stroked his head, "This little bear is the warrior Mommy Annie picked out for you, after you go to sleep, he'll be with the little bear you used to have, protecting you!"
Damon's head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and his tone was sweet and oversized as he said, "I love it!"
Said, and also stretched out two small arms, efforts than a super big circle, "there so like!"
Bonnie's eyes curled up in a smile and she reached out and touched his head.
But to my surprise, Damon just played with the new bear for a while, then carefully put it back into the paper bag and hid it in the cupboard.
He himself still plays with the stitched up broken bear.
"Damon, I thought you said you liked it, why don't you play that?" Bonnie asked, puzzled.
"I want to keep it," Damon blinked his big amber eyes, "keep it so I can give it to someone."
"To whom?" Bonnie asked again.
Damon shook his head confusedly, "I don't know."
Anyway, when he saw this new bear, an idea popped into his head.
Take care of the bear and give it to someone!
"Then when you think of someone to give it to, remember to tell me." Bonnie said.
Damon agreed without hesitation and pulled the hook with Bonnie for a promise.
Time flew by as the two talked and laughed in the bedroom.
In the blink of an eye, it's noon.
