Hi Everyone
Happy Friday

Its that time of year when we
{Love}
to continue family traditions old and new
 one of our traditions
  is including  in our decor a special present from Santa
 ~ Oatmeal Bear~
 Every year Oatmeal bear gets a special spot in a stocking 
Santa gave oatmeal bear to our daughter when she was a baby 
with instructions on how to share her toys with others
The letter was saved and every year when we put the stockings
up by the fireplace we
also got the chance to read the letter Santa left about sharing
now that our kid's are older oatmeal bear is cherished and so is the letter 
You can buy Oatmeal bear at Tricia Foleys
general store online
for only $12.50

Here is a copy of the letter just in case you would like to start this tradition too


Dear _______________

This is a special bear 
His name is oatmeal and he needs you to take care of him
Give him lots of hugs and love
and when you are feeling sad he will be there to hug and love you too
Be sure to share oatmeal bear with others he likes making new friends and the more you share him the more love will be shared with you

Love
Santa
