Transcript

00:00Hey there, plush fans. I'm not just any plush. I'm a little bear with more stories than stitches.

00:05Let me take you back to France, 1940. Imagine it.

00:09I'm perched on a little girl's pillow, listening to the world outside change overnight.

00:14One morning, sirens wailed. Her mama scooped me up, tucking me into a worn satchel.

00:20We hurried down winding alleys, hearts pounding.

00:22I didn't know it then, but we were running from the war.

00:25I felt her tiny hands squeezing me tighter when the planes flew low.

00:29Every squeeze said, don't worry bear, we're brave together.

00:33Sometimes we hid in cold stone cellars.

00:35Other times we snuck bites of stale bread, sharing every crumb.

00:39I soaked up her tears when she missed her papa, who'd gone away to fight.

00:43But even in the darkest times, she'd whisper stories to me of picnics, laughter, and sunny days she hoped would come back.

00:51One day, the sirens stopped. We peeked out and found neighbors cheering in the streets.

00:56Freedom! She danced with me in her arms, spinning and laughing, her joy returning like the sun after a storm.

01:03Now, when you hug your favorite plush, remember, we're more than soft toys.

01:07We're keepers of hope, courage, and the memories that carry you through even the hardest days.

01:13Thanks for listening to my journey. Maybe your plush has a tale to tell too.
