ISO a Specific Teddy Bear

I’m trying to find the teddy bear of my youth, and everyone says to ask Reddit, so here I am.

This is what I remember about it:

- Small (bigger than a Beanie Baby, smaller than a Care Bear)
- Pinkish-blonde
- Had either a red music note or a red heart embroidered on the front left
- Wind up on the back, silver - either played the typical Lullaby song, or Clair de Lune, but it sounded like a music box
- my mother said it was a gift when I was born (1984) but I’m not sure how true that is. She said my grandfather bought it at Sears for me.
- Its arms were up, as if they were sewn to stay that way. I could move them but they always went back up

I loved this bear so very much. I’ve searched for years, and cannot find it.

I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer.

(Also, I’m still searching for a picture of it somewhere. ETA unknown.)

A Few Curve Balls

My maternal DNA was surprising, in that I had no idea we had any kind of Jewish ancestry, and neither did my mother. My dad was completely shocked that we had any kind of French heritage.
I’m thrilled for the diversity - when my kids were younger, we did a “culinary tour” of my DNA profile, making the most popular food from each country shown. Highly recommend trying it

What is happening here?

I bought this picture at an estate sale of a very well traveled individual. They had souvenirs from all around the world but this picture stuck out. Not long after having it, I started having horrible nightmares, so I got rid of it (salted and burned it, then had someone come and sage my house, and a preacher come pray over the home). After that, the nightmares stopped. But after all this time, I still can’t figure out what was happening or where/when it may have been taken. Any help is greatly appreciated. (The images are scans that are saved to my storage drive. Sorry in advance about any clarity issues.)

Weird Mail

My debit card was hacked and two days later, I get this weird package in the mail. It’s a plain wooden birdhouse. The sender has one name, like Cher or Prince. The address is for an industrial complex in Katy, TX. No idea what in the world could’ve transpired to send me this - I certainly didn’t buy it. The whole thing is very strange.
