	Was moth-eaten old teddy bear with only one arm. The bear, which was bought in a jumble sale was also threadbare (no pun intended :-)) and had two mismatched eyes which gave it the appearance of being cross-eyed. I loved that little bear! My friends, however, mocked it, and called it all sorts of names :-( Decrepit, ugly, scan-eyed; just a few of the nasty comments :-\| I didn't care. I loved that bear It was my bear.......my crossed eyed bear! Which was why I called it, Gladly :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
