Thank you so much for helping us continue Bel’s legacy and spread kindness to others with blessings! Sincerely, Vicki Coonrod Bel's Mom We went hunting for deals on bears today and did we ever find some deals! Since yesterday was Valentines Day all the holiday items were half off so we took advantage of this great deal. Not only did we find some great prices but we also found some amazing strangers who blessed us. At our first stop we had several people ask why we were getting a cart full of bears and this served as a great chance to tell about Bellanne Butterfly Blessings but best of all we got to share Bel's story with others. Also a couple at the check out next to us helped pay for part of our bears which was a huge shock and wonderful blessings. The next stop we found every bear possible and placed it in the cart. As we are checking out a gentleman behind us asks if Clar just loves bears. So we explain we are buying the bears for our charity to give to Cook Children's because every child who is admitted to the hospital get a bear. The gentleman pauses for a bit and mentions that his grandchild has been to Cook Children's before and chuckles at how much Clar is enjoying helping. The next thing I know he offers to pay for all the bears! What a kind gesture and wonderful blessings! There is no doubt Bel is busy spreading her sparkle and love! As we headed home with a truck full of bears it is so great to know there are good people in this world who have big hearts and share their love as well as blessings with others. Kindness if everywhere!
