Wordless Wednesday – Babysitting A Cutie Patootie

On By Absurd RhioIn wordless wednesday

Every Tuesday, my son has a long day at university. While he’s off being brilliant, he leaves his bear — Cutie Patootie — in my care for a bit of “bearsitting.” My son doesn’t like that his baby bear is left alone all day in his room, hence I’m needed to step up to my grandma responsibilities.

Throughout the day, I send him updates – pictures of Cutie getting thoroughly spoiled with coffee, snacks, and grandma-level pampering. It’s become our little tradition, and it softens the ache of missing him while he’s away. There’s something so tender about sharing the love through a bear we both adore — it makes the distance feel just a little bit smaller, one fluffy adorable bear text at a time.

For Wordless Wednesday, here are the photos I sent my son.

My morning routine involves coffee fren
Aww fren you joined me
Time for a bit of important bear business, bear blogging and looking on the Jellycat website heh
ADD TO CART, ADD TO CART! hehe
Fren, my human said I wasn’t allowed Coke? Hehe I wont tell him if you don’t.
Biscoff is life fren.
The Vitamin D weakness hit you hard fren? I’ll be your nap buddy.

I usually write about the harder things — grief, recovery, mental health — but this soft little tradition is just as much my reality as the harder topics I talk about. Just a reminder that even in the mess, there’s space for fluff and love, and bears who won’t nap.

    1. Lovely photos. I am not a fan of Oreos. But Oreo cola? I learnt something new there. I wasn’t aware. Not that I will try it anytime soon. But I was curious and zoomed in on that photo just to be sure I was seeing what I was seeing. I love the look of the can. It certainly caught my eye.

      1. It just tasted like regular coke, but a bit sweeter. It was a bit disappointing. I saw them at the checkout and was intrigued so I had to try it. I too love the look of the can thats probably why i did buy it.
