Well gals it is now 12:30am and I survived the party , and I THINK the girls are FINALLY asleep- there were only 7 girls who stayed so 1 bear isn't done yet. I'm am tired but feel like such a proud mom that I couldn't wait to share some pictures. I think they really enjoyed making their own bears. They were quite excited to know that I made the bodies, they thought I bought them. One girl told me her grandma has bears in every room.
Anyway, here are some pictures of the event and the results. (Sorry about the smudged face- I didn't want any parents to be angry with me posting their daughters picture- I had to keep the smiles tough ) I am so proud of the girls. They were very patient and consciencous about doing things right. Especially closing the seams. They had fun choosing the eye color and size. I gave each girl a little plastic heart to put in the bear before closing the seam. They also had a lot of fun chosing a ribbon or decoration.
Once they all chose names we printed out personalized Bearth Certificates. We cheered and clapped for the new Mom as she placed her gold stamp on the certificate. Overall , I think it went really well and they are all snuggled up with their new furry friends. One of the girls told me that her bear is only going to be allowed to watch kids movies and she'll cover his eyes if there are any bad parts . What joy to see their little bears come to life :cry:
Now, I get to go to sleep too Thanks for sharing my excitement.
