…they will come!! Over the weekend we went to the mall / Build-A-Bear Workshop to use the gift cards the kids received, ahem, for Halloween. Yes, we probably SHOULD have made it sooner. Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Fact is, we hadn’t and in typical God fashion…that was for the best! The kids agonized over which animal they wanted to build.
Did Maggie want the horse or the unicorn? Did Liam want a wolf pup or a camo bear? Ugh!
When they had finally made the BIG decision they waited patiently while this nice lady stuffed them. She was really great with the kids. I don’t recall her name…but all the staff at the Concord Mills Mall Build-A-Bear store were great!! They appeared to enjoy their jobs (whether they actually do or not).
After stuffing, the kids had to do the silly little dance with the heart they chose for their bear/horse.
Jon put the hearts in for them…a little token…a piece of his heart with them, while he’s gone.
It was very sweet…as you can see, Sam was nearly overcome.
It ain’t easy looking cool in Build-A-Bear workshop. But, he managed it like a pro. Then he took me for a new pair of shoes.
Love you all!!!
