And then, even in the dark dumpster, Levi recognized them. All his buddies from the toy store shelf. All of them were torn and tattered. They were grimy and stained. And each of them had something to offer. Elephant, who lost his eyes, could still remember everything. So he told the stories that kept them all alive. Dog was the one singing and he helped keep their spirits up. Bunny was able to stuff stuffing back into all of them and did her best to tie on what was falling off.
They may have all been broken but all Levi could see was family.
