Roo - The Real Thing
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real. ... Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
Charlie and Roo

That is sooooo lovely and soooo sad at the same time...
Hugs and kisses from kikos world
so sweet! If I recall correctly when Charlie first got Roo, he had to be supervised because you were worried Roo would get torn limb from limb but instead charlie has just carried him everywhere for some time now, no? That is so so sweet!
