The Gift of Warmth

So most of you that read this blog know that my best friend Stephanie moved to Oklahoma this past summer. Her and I have been friends for over 20 years and our kids all grew up together. So needless to say it was a very hard thing to have her move away. My boys miss Mikey terribly and I miss Stephanie and my "girlfriend", Cece my playmate! We talk on the phone as often as possible and we chat online when our computers cooperate. Anyway, I know that she is happy there and doing well. For Christmas she made all the boys little blankets and sent them a care package of hot cocoa and popcorn for movie nights. All these things were meant to keep them warm. She wrote a very cute poem to go with the blankets and the boys carried their blankets around all night. She even put a little lovey size blanket in the package for the new baby. Lets all hope and pray it is a girl because the blanket is pink with stars and moons on it! LOL! Alex read the poem as they opened the gifts and Nathan actually cried (He will kill me for posting that, but it was cute that he showed his sensitive side.)PS: You will need to click on the picture of the poem if you want to read it. I could not get it any bigger. I think these will be very special blankets for all of the kids and we thank Auntie Stephanie, Mikey and Cece for putting so much love and thought into it. We look forward to seeing them hopefully this summer!
