Babies, babies everywhere. Anywhere and everywhere you look you can see new babies. Baby blankets are probably in high demand right now. It’s such and awesome sight to see a new baby swaddled in a new blankie.
When my children were little, they each got a special blankie. Now you can get them personalized. How special to hand down, not only your baby blankie to your children, but even personalized. That is a keepsake for sure. There are so many neat things now days for babies, but how many things can get handed down as a keepsake.
Remember the blankies with the satin edges, so soft when you rub them on your face. One of my children, I can’t remember which one of the four (terrible I know), used to go to sleep that way. Think of how special that would have been if it had been personalized to hand down and tell stories about. I know my children love to hear stories of how they were as babies, sounds and all. Sometimes I feel kinda goofy trying to mimic the sounds until I see their eyes staring off into space trying to imagine themselves doing that. The little giggle and the way their eyes light up next takes the goofy feeling away and tickles me too.
Time sure does get away from you doesn’t it. My babies are all in school now and one is married and living miles away, and now I am waiting for the time I can give that darling, wonderful, bundle of joy something special from grandma, (gee that sounds funny) , I can’t wait to have a grand child to love. I know he or she will be spoiled rotten, not only by me but aunts and uncles also awaiting the time. Well all in due time I guess, I am still trying to accept the fact of her moving away to start a life so far away without me.
