She’s not yet learned to bend with grace or extend her arms in confidence.
She has yet to learn how to withstand heavy winds
Or hold herself under weight never meant for her.
Wobbly and uncertain she sways in the grass growing lovely.
Tall and slender she blends perfectly with tender blooms.
Around her together every form of life hangs on her soft whisper,
He will come.
He will lift my burden.
Every sparrow, every cloud above knows He will.

“Crystal’s Tree” has been on my mind for weeks. I saw a quote on the net about children who live with adult responsibility and fight with everything they have to manage it with their inadequate resources. It was a touching quote.

Last Tuesday on my way to an appointment my cad driver and I passed a terrible car accident. A man, skinny as a rail pulled a grown woman from her wrecked truck and carried her to the sidewalk as if she were a rag doll. What impressed me was how gently he placed her in the grass. What broke my heart was that he then lay over her chest and wept.

Weep For Me – a simple drawing for a very moving situation.

Honey Bear
In one photo she’s with friends but Honey Bear is sold separately. Please contact me with any questions.
And here they are, teddy bears waiting for a home. These little ones are made from cream coloured material about the weight of corduroy. They’re hand stitched and filled with ployfiled with soft pink fabric paint on the ears. Both have pom-pom eyes and a small green checkered scarf. No glue was used during the creative process.
The first bear is a 10 inch aromatherapy bear which means his belly has small grain white rice and a small pouch with chamomile buds. The dried chamomile I use is high quality, rich in aroma and long lasting. When not being snuggled the aromatherapy bears can rest in a soup mug (not included) or any area of your home.
The second bear is a small 8 inch carry along bear sure to be a good side kick at the doctor’s office, the grocery store or anywhere you and your child travel. He’s polyfill only, no rice or aroma added. He’ll fit in your bag just fine or in a cup as shown. With a little green checkered scarf this little buddy is always ready to go.
Safety Note: If the bear is for a child please remove the button(s) from the scarf. Both bears are microwave safe but please check the warmth before the bear is placed against or near skin.
