6:40 am. in kitchen.
colin: 'mom if our house ever starts on fire, could you make sure you save my yellow blanket?'
me: 'of course colin.'
-
i know i've talked about the yellow blanket before.
it was a gift from the zenger family when colin was born.
its soft and fleecy with zoo animals on it.
it has been washed so many times, the animals are fading away.
it lives under colins pillow on his bed each day.
it was with us when colin was in the ambulance years ago.
it was with us on the plane when we flew to texas.
it was with us on sick days.
it was with us on every car trip home.
its a blanket.
its a pillow.
its a fort wall.
its a friend storing memories.
its a kleenex holding tears.
its a part of colins life.
its colins everyday memory today.
