Bear
A delightful little fellow arrived in the post this week, I just had to share him with you. Such an amazing gift, words fail me.
“Dear Mr & Mrs Lawson,
I trust I find you well.
I have been on a fairly long journey after spending the summer in Bournemouth. I have had a lovely time collecting shells, paddle-boarding and geo-caching…it’s been quite exhausting!
However, the weather has turned considerably. Its far too cold to be wandering around near the seaside.
I have been informed there may be a vacancy for me at your residence. I have always wanted to live in a nursery and hope you will consider me for this position. I really love spending time with children. I have always wanted to live with a little boy as I love talking about boy things such as boats, planes and astronomy. I am not fussed on girls things other than baking biscuits.
I don’t remember much about where I came from. My first memory is finding a nice shell on the beach! Nor do I remember my name. You are welcome to give me one.
I am a bit frightened about being in a washing machine. However, if I ever do need to go in one I would probably be ok if I was in a cloth bag.
Thank you and I look forward to my future with you and your little boy.
Love,
BEAR”

I love this. I may have had a tear in my eye. Just a little one.
Bertie is a lucky boy to have a friend like Bear.
This made me cry. It’s my hormones, honestly.
This is just the sweetest thing I have seen in such a long time. What lovely people there are in the world 🙂
That is the cutest! xx
What a wonderful addition to the nursery and the Lawson household. We know Bear will love life in Adlington with Bertie…has to be better than Bournemouth! Isn’t Bertie a lucky chap! Xxx
He was a bit scared of going in the box, but we promised him he’d have a nice time when he got there. Glad he kept his ribbon on too – he didn’t want to wear it, but we told him it was important to look smart when meeting new people.
Ahhh he’s adorable and he wrote such an amazing letter to apply for the position that I do hope you will accept him for the vacancy in the Lawson home. He sounds like a wonderful Bear. I’m sure Bertie will grow very fond of him and thoroughly enjoy his company! x
Bear is going to be very lucky living in a home with Bertie and his Mummy and Daddy, he will be muched loved. Please let us know what his name will be, with best wishes x
What a gorgeous bear!! He will keep Bertie very happy xx
