Valentine - For Mail Carrier - LF Simon TH CTMH

Made this Slimline Valentine for my mail carrier.

Yes, I like plush and some of you may know that I am a pilot of small engine planes; thus the bear plush. I tell people I cannot ride a regular bicycle, never learned to balance, but can ride a tandem which I have and ride with hubby or adult bicycle which has three wheels which I have also.
