Adventures of Eddie: A Tale of the Golden Bone

Courage

Eddie, a sleepy Samoyed, goes on an adventure to find the legendary golden bone hidden somewhere in Ottestad, Norway. With courage and determination, Eddie faces numerous obstacles and learns valuable lessons along the way.

Eddie, the fluffy Samoyed with white fur, lived in the cozy town of Ottestad, Norway. One sunny morning, Eddie's friend, a wise boy named Hootie, told him about the legendary golden bone hidden in the forest. Eddie knew he had to find it, but he was always so sleepy. - We need to find that bone, Hootie! Eddie exclaimed. - It will take courage, Eddie, Hootie replied.

Eddie and Hootie set off into the dense forest. They soon encountered a rushing river blocking their path. - How will we cross? Eddie asked, feeling unsure. - We need to find a way, Hootie encouraged. Eddie tried to jump, but he landed in the water, soaking his fur.

After crossing the river, Eddie and Hootie found themselves in a dark cave. Eddie's fur stood on end as he heard strange noises. - I don't like this place, Eddie whispered. - We must be brave, Hootie said. Eddie took a deep breath and continued, but a gust of wind blew out their torch.

Eddie felt defeated and sat down, shivering in the dark. - Maybe we should give up, he said, his voice trembling. - Don't give up, Eddie, Hootie urged. - But it's so hard, Eddie replied, tears in his eyes. Hootie wrapped a wing around Eddie, trying to comfort him.

Suddenly, a friendly firefly appeared, lighting up the cave. - Follow me, the firefly said. Eddie and Hootie followed the tiny light, which led them to a hidden passage. - We can do this, Eddie said, feeling a new sense of courage. - Yes, we can, Hootie agreed. They continued their journey with renewed hope.

Finally, Eddie and Hootie reached a clearing where the golden bone was buried. Eddie dug with all his might, uncovering the treasure. - We did it! Eddie exclaimed, holding the golden bone triumphantly. - You showed great courage, Eddie, Hootie praised. Eddie learned that with courage and determination, he could overcome any obstacle.

The Overcoat

One day, I will tell you about the overcoat. The vintage brown artifact with epaulets and pockets stoically suspended from the stout wooden peg in the recesses of the hall closet. The coat no child would ever dream of wearing outside. That coat. You might come to love that garment one day, as I do; to value its heft and utility, to see it, perhaps, as an extension of yourself. One day, you just might. I brought the coat with us that Thursday to the hospital near Tel Aviv; or perhaps I intended to bring it but did not. I had been cherishing the garment since October and tossed it in the trunk of the Camry — on top of the ballistic helmets and vests — before leaving home to collect your older sister from preschool. Your grandmother, Auntie Bella, and I. "A Jew should always have a coat. Preferably one with pockets." Not that we needed outerwear that afternoon. The weather was dry and bright; the sun winking through enormous clouds as it tends to do in March after consecutive days of rain. Winter was still in charge, but Spring was teasing. The scent of seasons changing was such that you would savor — grassy, earthy, and engaging like a fine tobacco blend. With the moonroof open just right, to let in the sort of texture I prefer. One day, I will tell you about that Winter. How I was crafting these sentences in a writing workshop during your birth. One day, you will know how — by the time we were navigating toward the maternity ward — I had been stabbing my hands deep into the side pockets of the coat since October and shrugging my shoulders for comfort more than warmth. One day, you might hear about those ballistic helmets and vests. About The Day The Music Died, and everything that came next. “Tell us about the coat, Grandpa,” you might insist one day. A coat with many pockets; weighty, functional, and warm. Like the forest green U.S. Army bomber jacket your Zaidy Sam kept phylacteries in during WW2, when stationed in Burma. Like the woolen trench coat your Bubbie Bella hid gold coins in during that same war, when surviving in a Ukrainian forest. A coat well made keeps one snug and has pockets to store essentials. A Jewish coat also has pockets for necessities one often forgets. Pockets for conflicting emotions. Pockets for Worry and Sadness. Pockets for Gladness and Hope. That Winter I had been making use of the garment’s more practical hollows and neglecting others. That is how I remember it. I was rummaging for solace in all the wrong places and brought the allegorical coat along to reach into pockets I suddenly recalled were there. Pockets for Poetry and Prayer. Pockets for Loving and Light. Like your birth that March in Israel, your other Zaidy also emerged from such pockets in Poland during another period of Darkness. Our family knows about hardship and sorrow. Our family knows about hidden pockets, too. “Tell us again about that Thursday, Grandpa,” you might one day insist. Then, I might set aside my briar wood pipe and tell you about when the sun in March was grinning. When your Grammy baked sweet potato muffins for your mother — you know the ones — and we had to double back to the hospital from the highway after forgetting to leave important documents behind for your father. How the Fall holidays had not yet ended and the Spring holidays were unimaginably looming after 153 Days of Discontent. How you were a second — and also a first — in our family. How your arrival offered Light when we needed it most. “That is how I remember it,” I might one day tell you and your sister who devours stories like M&M’s. “Later, the coat was on its peg when your parents would finally bring you home.”
