Jem & Felicity wanted me to sew them a couple of teddy bears. I dragged my feet for a day or two but finally I relented.
Don’t say it.
Don’t you dare even say it.
AMDG,
Lots of Coffee, lots of kids. It's a peaceful life.

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I try to always tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥

How did you make them look "pre-loved?" (ya know, like cars now are pre-owned, not used)
Sarah - Kala says
I absolutely love them!
Margaret Mary Myers says
I love them!
They are very sweet, real, and lovable.

Looks like they have already been loved. I'm sure your children appreciated you taking the time to make them. Good mommy.

HAHAHA!!
Margaret…I love you.
Yep. That's humility, and I am going to say it…
Way to teach us!
BTW: I bet your girls were thrilled. It always amazes me the way I see things and the way they do…

They're precious bears!

Ya know, those are going to be the kids' favorite stuffed animal for years. They'll be a family heirloom that's passed down to the next generation (and no, I'm not saying that in jest). The things we take the time to make by hand are the most treasured … as they should be.

You're braver than I am, Margaret. I've been thinking about trying to make a doll dress for a naked doll for more than a year. And just don't dare to try for fear of failure. I should jump in an just do it. She'll love it no matter what the imperfections.

Margaret, I think they are wonderful and I'm sure that your girls are really excited. Love the fact that kids see things in a different light—-like Kimberly said. Isn't it great! Definite treasures. Cheri

AmysZoo says
CUTE!!! What a mom you are…really 🙂 I love the bears!
Jill says
That's way better than I could do.
I have to simply sew a little strap onto Aslynn's ballet shoes and I think I'm going to have to outsource it. 🙂
You are great, Margaret!
KC says
What a great mom your are. They are adorable.
Theresa says
Bahahaha!!!
Well…Look on the bright side. Halloween is coming up soon!You've already got your decorations made!!LOL!
Ellen says
It's not in the execution of the project, but the love behind it. Okay, maybe there should be an execution – of the bears
nutmeg says
You did a WAY better job than I EVER could.
Yay Mama!

I think anything that requires sewing deserves applause. Period. End of post. Cue the applause. 🙂
