😍 Stephen has made a scarecrow👩🌾 for our garden. His name is Friendly Freddie. He found a stick that looked like a body, threw a safety vest on it, found a fancy hat and painted a face on a pot. He put it all together, stuck it in the ground and 🪄 : Friendly Freddie👩🌾 was born. Nice eyes, great smile, beautiful hat … and Friendly Freddie looks good too 😜 !
