YAAHHHOOOOO !!!!  I'm assuming it was a joyful reunion by the excitement in the newsflash bear_original  Perfect timing to get some attention for the final push in voting.  I can't wait to read the update of how this unfolded.   I wonder if Lily will stay this time.

I was like Joanne and exclaimed "WHAT!!!" as soon as I read your update and then my whole body broke out in goosebumps!!!   bear_wacko  bear_wacko
I can't wait to read the centre's update later on.  I read a couple of days ago that their paths nearly crossed but Lily moved off in a different direction.

That's just about made my day! :dance:  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

Thanks, Becky and Peter........isn't that the most glorious photo??? Even down to the identical poses...........and now we can really see just how much hope has grown!
I was going to bed EARLY tonight (it's got cooler!)......some hopes............
My face is almost sore from grinning ear to ear, and my contact lenses are all fogged up from the happy tears..........but it's all GOOD!

What   magical photos.  That is probably the best sleep they have both had since separating.  What a miracle that they are reunited, and lily is actually producing milk .   bear_wub  Now lets hope June keeps her distance !

He!  I'm the same as you Maria, I've been grinning from ear to ear too and was just saying that to a friend of mine who lives in Canada.  How wonderful that a sweet little bear is making the whole world talk to each other!  I don't think I will be getting much sleep tonight, waaaaaaaaaaay tooooooooo excited!!!  Yay!

Hugs to everyone  :hug:  :hug:

This is the still photo that accompanied the much-awaited update about Lily/Hope's reunion.  I worked on it a little so we could see the detail . . . it was originally a bit dark.

Oh - it's an absolute JOY to see them both -  together again.........and even if Lily does wander off again, we KNOW Hope can take care of herself.  But I SO hope they stay together...........Hope has her best buddy to play with again - and SECURITY.
It's a GOOD day today :dance:  :dance:  :dance:  - it's even cooler, and despite lack of sleep I feel almost human again (almost!).
Seems we were lucky here,  yesterday - some ferocious storms to the north of Germany and even a couple of tornadoes! Hells bells - we don't DO tornadoes..............these severe weather events are SCAREY!
And now to patiently (?) wait for the final, Chase-approved, results of the voting.........NABC are in 3rd place - but there were concerns as to how the top 2 got SO many votes..............

:dance: How exciting!  And thank you so much for the pictures!  I've been working on creating my own little Hope, but it's been slow going with my injury.  I hope to have her done soon.  Both Lily and Hope are so inspiring!   bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub

July 18 - DRAMA CONTINUES
Seems Lily is having second thoughts AGAIN about this whole "being a momma" thing. I think she has split personalities.
Poor Hope. They slept 1/2 mile apart from each other last night. Hope found Lily today but it sounds like Lily isn't happy about being found. The poor babe just wants her momma!  bear_cry  Waiting for tonight's update....
