Floppy skins before the stuffing and love was added
Warm up the heart between your hands the nice lady told her
Putting the love in by choosing the perfect heart
Put the heart on your nose for luck
Adding the Love and Stuffing to the bears
Warm up the heart between your hands the nice lady told her
Look at my new bear I made
Bears complete with love, stuffing, and even hearts. Fuzzy Bear (on the left) was donated to Autism Speaks and Lucky Bear (on the right) came to her new home here.
Giving the bears a bath
Alpha Xi Delta sponsored an event to raise money for Autism Speaks, a charity, that was adopted just recently as their philanthropy. I being an advisor to the current chapter felt that we should support the girls in their efforts and thought this would be a great way to get my daughter involved in helping fellow children. She loved it. The girls thought she was adorable and praised her for being so generous to make a bear for their event. Being a mom, I knew it was in my best interest to keep the waterfall tears from flowing by letting Sophia pick out a bear of her own to take home as well. I told her we were making a bear for kids but that she could also pick one out for herself too. I knew she wouldn't fully understand when she made a bear and had to give it up so I let her make one for the kids and one for her. She had a blast as you can see from the photos above and the slide show below.
