How the bare bear found her smile

There once was a big eyed bear named Honey. She was a beanie boo. The advanced version of TY stuffed animals. Honey longed to be a ballerina bear. Her home had a ballet bunny, hippo and HelloKitty. Why shouldn't she be one also? Her friends told her that she couldn't be a ballerina. She fought the idea tooth and nail. She began to be unhappy every day. Mother FRisbee kept telling her she is a shining star in her own way. Still, Honey longed for the pink tutu and shoes that the ballerinas wore. After awhile her person began taking her to her own classes, clipped to her bag. Honey couldn't see what they did all the time, but she could hear them dancing. She began smiling again. When her friends and Frisbee asked what brought her smile back, Honey told them she didn't want a pink tutu and shoes anymore. Real ballerinas were bare to the teacher. She was closer to ballet than the ballerina toys. Her bare bear body showed everything wrong, and everything right, making her a better bear altogether.
