Do you remember this little bear I made in December 2008 for the Mother Bear Project?
Well, the most wonderful thing happened today. He came back to give Emmitt and me a hug when Amy, founder of the Mother Bear Project, sent me this photo of him in his new home loved by this sweet little boy in Zambia.
I feel like Emmitt and I have hugged someone 1/2 around the world! ~ Wow!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Life is Art... Art is Life!
