My Dad's Bear December 7

Anna Merry Tree
Romy paper
My Dad was in the infantry in WWII. While on leave in Bern, Switzerland, he bought this carved bear to bring home to my Mother. Dad and Mom are gone now, but each year the bear joins my family in some aspect of our holiday decor. This year, he is snugged up close to Joseph and keeps watch over Baby Jesus. I love having a physical reminder to keep my Dad's presence near.
What a wonderful story. At the time he bought that bear, he had no idea of the impact it would have in the future. We never know how the small things we do will affect people. Beautiful page.
 
Such a precious gift to have! A lovely way to keep your father with you each Christmas!! Beautiful!
