Essential Interior Mod!
My son insists that I have a teddy bear with me at all time to keep me safe.
I've been doing this tradition for the past ten years, since he was five. Because he's retarded, he's not going to grow out of it, so I get a new bear from time to time. The old bear has returned to his spot in the center rear seat of the Biscayne.
The new bear is now seated in the center front seat of the Vette!
Jesse made it for me at the local Build A Bear Workshop.
I made the tan (dare I say cashmere?) seat belt for the bear and attached through slots I cut into the clutter catcher.
I don't get much father-son stuff with him because he's going to be five forever, so this means a lot to me that he takes the time to pick out a special teddy bear for me.

That's one cool lookin' bear, and I'm sure your soon is equally cool.
On another note, and don't take this the wrong way, I think you should change your Biography (I know you are probably just kidding, but...)

I have spent some time with downsyndrome children. They never stop amazing me. He most likely loves you more than you could ever realize.
They are such caring children, and truly a blessing from God. Take care my brother, and God Bless.

So loving.
Brought tears to my eyes with the story.
God bless your son. And God bless you for sharing.
May I put a bear in my Corvette also in honor of your son?
Come on Forum members, show some support for this wonderful father and his loving son.
Can we start an 'Add a Bear' campaign?
