Bearies at the bottom of our garden!

Teddy bears are not like ethereal fairies. Teddy bears are very substantial creatures, not generally elusive or shy, but very affectionate, and usually helpful to have around. As far as I know we don't have any fairies at the bottom of our garden, but today a little group of my 'bearies' decided to be helpful by doing some gardening, and this required an expedition to the bottom of our garden.

O'Shaughnessy, the leader of the expedition, headed off, closely followed by Sandi, a newly completed teddy bear who has just joined the hug, and Burt, a mature gentleman who thought it wise to go along, to make sure everything was done decently and in order.

Sandi, young and enthusiastic, was keen to learn the art of gardening - that is until O'Shaughnessy showed her the patch of overgrown garden that needed weeding and digging over. She looked at the daunting task and almost turned back.

However, O'Shaughnessy, a patient teacher, demonstrated step by step how it was done,

and soon they were both hard at work,

with Burt looking on proudly at their efforts.

They returned from the bottom of the garden very pleased with themselves, and very hungry! They were certainly ready for their tea and toast - with peanut butter and honey, of course!
