The fist one is my mermaid bear...I designed her tail myself...I didn't have enough fur for the legs of the bear so that is where I came up with the mermaid idea

Everything is so beautiful Jayne.
I just wanted to say my Dad is named Wilfred too, although he uses his second name. My Grandpa is Wilfred too.
