my daughter and I used to make gifts for the national child connection network. a shoe box filled with stuff for each child, this year we hope to do that again but we are mainly working on the convl. closer to home. so many have had to give up everything and no family to visit them. we feel this is the least we can do.
3,000 wow!!!!!! I only have about 1500 so far. I keep a notebook with their picture in it with all the information i can get on my teddy bears.
how did you get started, if I might ask. I got started by my son, he took me out to breakfast and talked me into playing a claw machine, i got a cutie and before long i started collecting. all shape, styles.
