Lydia...My Loyal Friend...

Hello...Today I thought that I would introduce you to my dear friend Lydia. She is such a gentle and kind soul. She is a good little secret-keeper...a valuable trait for a friend. Her smile will raise your spirits on the darkest of days. Her little kitten "Midgee" is her constant companion.

This is Lydia on her way to a Happy Birthday party for her dear friend Gloria. She has chosen her fanciest party dress because Minnie will be attending and Minnie thinks that she is the prettiest one in Sugar Plum Corners...But, alas...Lydia believes that she is the prettiest one. So...Lydia has bought a new hat that is sure to make Minnie jealous.

Lydia has chosen her most sophisticated outfit for the Sugar Plum Corners Junior League meeting. She is hopeful that she will be appointed the Cookie Booth Chairperson for the upcoming Founder's Day Fair. It can be a backbiting bunch so she is always on her best behavior at these meetings. Just one miss-step and she could end up on the clean up committee. An update....she was appointed Cookie Chairman and it was a huge triumph for her...as she set record breaking sales numbers. It seems that the her famous Snickerdoodles were the crowd favorite.

Here is Lydia "on point"...Many of her friends in Sugar Plum Corners didn't know that she was once a famous Prima Ballerina. She is quite humble, so not many know of her celebrity past.

Lydia is a drum majorette also. She proudly marches in front of the Sugar Plum Corners Brass Band in every parade. She can really strut her stuff, but sadly, she rarely catches her twirling baton. Oh dear, this can sometimes be a hazard for the onlookers.

All of my silly old goofy bears live in Sugar Plum Corners...a lovely little retirement village for retired teddy bears. Thank you for visiting with Lydia and me today. In the future I will introduce you to some of the others.

Have silly "beware of flying batons" fun,   Jody
