snuggle bug baby

I did a testing for a wonderful designer and ended up with a piece of art. This adorable bug was made with the intentions of being wrapped up and placed beneath the Christmas tree, but my daughter had been watching me and helped me stuff this cute stuffy. After I would inspect my progress, she would grab a hold of this cutie and run around the room with it lovingly in her arms, I had such joy watching her smile and her eyes glistening with delight that I couldn’t place it beneath the tree and have her wait a month for it. She sleeps with this cutie and calls it her baby. I think the surprise factor was what made me love this process of making this toy, but when my daughter fell in love with it while I was making it, made me feel so giddy with anticipation, it was like I was making it for me.
