Braille TeddiesI always carry at least one of my bears everywhere I go. I had a bear named Becky that I was going to keep, but there was a little kid at church whose name was Becca. She fell in love with that bear. Something, maybe it was God, told me to give her the bear, so I did. You should have seen the reaction of the little girl when I told her she could have her. I hope Becca and Becky will have a very close friendship. It makes me so happy that my bear will be loved. Have any of you guys ever given a bear to a kid? I'm not referring to a bear they can't play with, but a nice cuddly bear that you made. My dream is that my bears will be able to give love and caring to their new mommies/daddies the same as my bears in my collection have given me. I made a bear for my neighbors' unborn baby and I would love for that bear to be the one he carries around throughout his childhood and becomes his lifelong companion.

What a nice story. I am not religious though, and as such don't see the connection with your actions, but I do like the reaction nevertheless. :) This to me shows the power of teddy bears, religious or otherwise. Alas, I am slightly too selfish to be as altruistic as yourself, although in the past I have given away teddy bears from my hug to people who I feel deserve them. And that's a good thing. :)

Braille TeddiesI love bringing joy to people. That's why I started making bears in the first place.
