Do you own a stuffed animal? There are many reasons why Cocoa is important to me. First, Cocoa is quiet. My sister, Katie, is a chatter-box. That is a huge reason I like Cocoa. I can share my secrets with him and not worry about him blurting them out. Since I sleep with Cocoa, I can sleep in peace. (or is that because I have a pillow over my head?) Once I was telling Cocoa something, he was quiet about it, but I wasn't and Chase burst in and said, "Really?".
Next Cocoa is one of a kind. He's the only Cocoa I've ever known. He isn't fuzzy or fluffy. Cocoa lost all the stuffing in his neck, and he's old.
Lastly Cocoa is always obedient. If I tell him to sit, he's already sitting. If Mom tells us to be quiet, he already is. If I throw him high into the air by one foot and tell him to do a cartwheel in midair, he'll do it.
All in all, there are many reasons Cocoa is important to me: he is quiet, one of a kind, and always obedient. That is why I love Cocoa.
The End
P.S. Cocoa is my stuffed bunny!

Emily, I think Heavenly Father has given you a very special gift with your beautiful stories and wonderful way of expressing yourself through writing. Writing will be a treasure for you forever if you let it. Sometimes when we have a special gift or talent-it comes so naturally to us-we don't even realize how special we are or that it is a gift. It's so easy-we think everyone can do it. But, you are special-and your writing is a gift. I hope you find pleasure in it for your life-I know I think it's a pleasure reading what you write. I love you, Sweetie
