My sister, Yetti (manages the Facebook page), was here on Monday for Addie's surgery and was really studying Addie's special blanket... The blanket she has had since her first Christmas that she takes everywhere!! It is her prized possession and she is obsessed with it!! She hates to have it washed and usually cries on wash day!! She sleeps with it and smells it... We call it her sniffing blanket!! She does this cute thing where she holds it up to her nose!!
This blanket was a very random purchase by me for Addie's first Christmas. Right around that time Addie had started liking to be put to sleep with a blankie by her face. This blanket was a clearanced item from the Gap and I had no idea at the time of purchase that it would be the ONE... Because it was a clearanced item and because Addie didn't really cling to it until she was a little older there was no chance in my head I would be able to get another copy!
Aunt Yetti, without me knowing because I don't have Facebook, posted something about Addie's special blanket! Thanks to some very special people we have know found a few more copies of this precious item!
I had to share this post with you that she just sent me...
How amazing is this?! Aaron is married to a classmate of mine from dental school who I was basically side by side with all four years, Megan is her name!! I believe there were two others found in Canada one by Michelle Bleimehl, the little sister to one of my good friends from high school, Amanda! And the other was found by Staci Klobnak, one of my sister Sherri's best friends!
This is another amazing example of the kindness and generosity that we have received!! My heart continues to overflow with gratitude and love for everyone!! I can't tell you all enough how much I appreciate your support of our sweet girl!!
Addie is doing to be so excited when she sees multiple copies of her special blanket and there will be no more tears on wash day!!!
Thank you everyone and thank you Gap, quite amazing!!
God works in mysterious ways!
