Hi everyone,

The strangest thing happened to me today.

Last week I had adopted a lovely little teddy called "Violet" by Tammy (Beckoning bears) from Canada. I wasn't really expecting her so soon, because I had never adopted a bear from Canada and reckoned it would probably be a couple of weeks.

Last Sunday at Hugglets when I was making my last tour of the halls a small teddy called "Jasmine" by Janice (Jigpaws from Scotland) seemed to "speak" to me ("take me with you, I'm ever so cute and you won't regret it" : you have to imagine the Scottish accent  bear_grin ).   Jasmine went home with me and she is really a little bundle of cuteness  bear_wub .

Today I received the parcel from Canada with little Violet in it and it immediately struck me that Violet and Jasmine were destined to be together : although they are from totally different parts of the world, they have both "flower" names, they are about the same size, they are both girl teddies and they are both soooo cute !  bear_flower

Is this just coincidence or were they destined to be together??  bear_whistle   You can judge for yourself by the pictures below.

THANK YOU TAMMY & JANICE for bringing these two lovely ladies into my life :clap:

Hugs,   :hug:

Peter, I'll go along with destiny.

These two are incredibly lovely, and they look so grateful to have found each other.

It always pays to listen to those little voices you hear:)

Just goes to show that listening to your inner voice works every time!

They are absolutely perfect together.  Why? BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COINCIDENSE. All in the universe is exactly the way it is supposed to be always.  I am a firm believer.

Peter, you have the most wonderful collection of bears, I am so happy to see them posted.

So I may be just a tad biased too LOL ,but I think they look  like the best of friends  bear_wub  What a great story and yes I too think they were meant to meet from across the Atlantic Ocean.  After all Violet was in a hurry to get there.- she must have know Jasmine was waiting.  Just look at them enjoying the  flowers on a sunny Belgian day. 

Wish I could be there too LOL.  I may never get to meet many bear artists or travel much , but it is always so neat when my bears get to live with other artist's bears that I admire around the world.  Great pictures Peter   bear_thumb Thanks for sharing .

Thanks so much for giving me opportunity to send the first Canadian bear for your hug.  I know Violet has found the perfect Dad who'll take great care of her.

Oh YES - they look so perfect together, Peter!  Can't help feeling a bit jealous tho - I'm waiting for a parcel from Canada too, but no sign of it yet - SIGH.........I bet the German Customs are playing with it............
Lovely meeting you on Sunday - you obviously had a great time (didn't we ALL?!)

That's an interesting question --  Peter, have any of your teddy bears got married yet, and if not, which ones would you want to see get hitched, and what event would they plan, do you think?  I can see lots of hugs, and marmalade sandwiches, and a huuuuuge picnic.  :)

No Thomas, no weddings in my hug; but a lot of close frienships are made : some teddies just seem to belong together  :hug: .
Though I like the idea of a teddy wedding and a huge picnic, wouldn't that be fun  :bday: .

I think my teddies take after me : bachelors forever  bear_grin  .
