NaPoWriMo 2019, Day 12

Today's prompt is to either write about a dull thing we own and why we love it, or to write about the loss of a significant thing.  I chose the latter.  I guess this was quite a loss for me as a child, especially since I remember it so many decades later.

First Grief

My first stuffed animal as a child
was a turtle who wore an orange beret.
When I was sick, I threw up on him
and so my mother threw him away. - Jeff Barnes
