In These Blankets There Is Love...

Jer bear's blanket - and his 'corner'...



pR with her blankie (see her corner?) and Jeremy's blankie. His is just a little thin isn't it?

A hug for Jeremy's blanket from his little pR.

Our little pR chews on the corner of her blanket. pR's corner is on the correct blankie - there are no imposters here. We bought multiple blankies when she was little, but she knows the 'right' one. The others do in a pinch, but the real one cannot be replaced. The corners are not "just right" - she says they don't feel right and she says they don't smell right. EWWWEEE!

I kept telling her mom and pR she was just like Uncle Jeremy. He used to do the same thing. Tonight, I pulled out Jer bear's beloved blanket. In the neat folds I had tucked his 'corner' that finally fell off. It fell on the ground and pR's jaw dropped. A corner not attached to a blanket!

When I asked pR if her blankie was going to look like that she said "yuh huh!" as she squirmed uncomfortably. I don't think she liked the corner unattached! She was so in awe at that blanket of her Uncle Jeremy's that she even gave it a little hug for him. Of course, if you know pR you know she is very close to her Uncle Jeremy. Now we have a real connection here - blankie corners :-)

You may collect your blankie at any time Jer bear. Mom still has it in your box of precious memories. It belongs with Jingle bear. How funny. Jer bear and Jingle bear. I never realized that until this moment. Awww, the memories...
