"Bears"

Makai has a bear; actually a "double" bear. "Bear" originally started as a single teddy bear lovingly knit by his other grandmother.

Bear #1 became pretty fragile after a few months of use so Great-Grandma knit Bear #2 which was bound to Bear # 1 with some wool. Bear #1-2 is invaluable to Makai as a source of comfort particularly at bedtime.

Bear also comes in handy when he needs to suck his thumb!
