the babo spirit, by moki
inspired by one of my uglydolls, babo. i got babo a few years ago while i was still in school. i saw it in the store window and was immediately drawn to it. i thought, what a great concept!
babo is described as follows:
Babo will protect you. Having a bad day? Someone giving you a hard time? Babo’s got your back. What Babo lacks in mind power, he makes up for in love. He’s everybody’s best friend. He will stick with you to the end and when something scary happens, he will send you a nice greeting card from wherever it is he runs away to. A very curious, mischievous creature, Babo may need some guidance and parenting, so make sure to bring him with you to as many places as possible. Leaving him at home is fine, but please put all cookies and money on the highest shelf.
to me, babo is not “real” but “the babo spirit” is very real - seeking adventure with loved ones, enjoying snacks, pure heart, and good fun. innocently always wanting to be a part of it too~
