I am an adult.  Yet like stated in my blog bio “I love cute furry animals (of both the live and the stuffed variety!)”  Evidence of this is my own Build-a-Bear collection pictured below.

Since I already had my own stuffed animal bunch, when I heard about Medtronic’s Lenny the Lion, and especially that he was available for purchase, of course I had to get myself one!  He is the softest, most cuddly lion around 🙂

I think it’s great what he stands for and wish when I was a little child with diabetes, something like Lenny was around.  But since it wasn’t, I’ll just have to enjoy him as an adult 😉
