Daily Shoot: Think of a favorite childhood sport, game, or activity. Make a nostalgic photo today.
I was never really into sports. My active mind lured me into games of the imagination. This rabbit, given to me when I was two by my proxy Scottish Grannie, has stayed with me while the other stuffed animals of my childhood have long gone away. All my animals had names and I would often play with them, imagining adventures they had. In play, animals that would be enemies in real life can be friends. I created a world of peace, harmony and friendship.
Stuffed animals have changed. This one is stuffed with what feels like wood fibre - not as cuddly as today's products. It lives in one of my drawers, a treasure from my past.
