Almost there... (just bearly)
Quick post to remind anyone who is interested that the deadline for submitting your bear story is tomorrow!
My email has been weird lately and I'm a bit concerned that I might not have received everything that's been sent. Here's a list of the people from whom I have submissions so far:
S Ansell-Casillas
L P Boynton
J Braun
S Brownrobie
D Cross
S Dalka-Prysby
B Devries
S Ferguson
T J Foster
N Fraser
K Hinderaker
E Kelley
A Kokalj
J Lane
L Lockridge & B Casey
M McCracken
K Natale
J Olson
A Pillow
A Prince-Bex
H Ramer
D Robertson
A Siemsen
If you have sent me something but your name is not on the list, please resend it and make sure you put Bear Story in the subject line so I can tell it isn't spam.
The stories that have come in are all fantastic, it is going to be really tough to choose one! They are each special and wonderful in their own way. Thank you all so much for your efforts. It will take a bit to determine which one to pick, probably not until after April 1st or possibly later. Katy will be home all next week for Spring Break!
If I don't manage to post before Sunday, have a lovely Easter! And so this isn't a completely pictureless post, here's one of the dollhouse a couple of years ago when the bunnies invaded:
Cheers,
Jenny
Love your bunny invasion! So cute! I feel awful because I wanted to submit a story but took TWO nasty falls within a week's time &, despite my natural padding, did some damage! So I haven't been quite up to much! Can't wait to see what people HAVE sent!

Hi Jenny! I am glad to see that there has been such a wonderfully postivie response to your book project! I had a sweet little copy of your blue bear on my desktop as a reminder to write. And, I didn't forget... I just had too much on my plate. This would have been fun. But, alas, the wheels are in motion and we shall soon see where our little friend is headed!
Have a gloriously joyful day!
