Introducing the 3 Teddy Bears in Japan ~ from left to right:

Junior is wearing a sweater that says "I love hugs."
Sara is wearing a pink sweater that says "Best Friends".

The Miniature Dachshund's name is Sachi (written in
Japanese 幸 , it means happiness).

A friend's grandblessing was the the inspiration of this slide show's story. Children are always watching and learning how to be themselves. So many lessons can be learned from watching children grow.

And, the "Teddy Bears in Japan" can teach the same thing while watching their reflection.

for your listening pleasure... one of my favorites...

Miss Holiday and Junior are happy that Sara joined them.

Miss Holiday and Junior were surprised by their Mama. Miss Holiday (wearing her yellow sweater) and Junior (wearing his Hugs sweater) are happy that Sara joined them.

Their Mama introduced Sara to them while they were away on a vacation. Sara is a Believer in Jesus Christ. Sara arrived in Japan in April. Sara's name in Japanese is written as 沙羅. Her name, when written in Japanese, means a sal tree.

And, their Mama surprised these three bears with a new brown miniature Dachshund puppy. The puppy's name is Sachi (written in Japanese 幸 it means happiness).

Stay tuned... these three bear's adventures with their Mama are only just beginning!
