This is my ability to be an adult. I won her when I was twenty-one and a half years old.
I'm not willing to call myself a grown-up yet. There's just so much fuckery I get up to that really keeps the title from me, and if nothing else, my pictures are still hung without frames1. But that is a small purple elephant, patterned with jungle animals. Her name is Emily.
To explain the full context and importance would take ten thousand words or more, and I still don't think I'd be able to get the emotions properly across. Suffice to say that the fact that she is there for me to hold is proof of maturity that I did not know I could possess.
She is the best elephant ever.
