Day 07 Photo Challenge

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item


Go ahead. Make fun. Laugh, but truthfully this IS (other than my dog/cell/laptop) my most treasured item!



My Green Blanket. I've had it since I was 3 years old if you can believe that! It has red stitches from the multiple times the edges have needed to be resewn on via thanks to my mom the wonderful seamstress!

Yes I'm 28 and I still sleep with a blanket.  No, Mister Wonderful doesn't care. It's such a safety thing for me. Reminds me of my mom. And thus, why it's a most treasured item.


Quick story:
When I was five or six, we flew somewhere on a plane and got all the way down to baggage claim before i started to scream and wail that my blanket was missing! My dad had to run ALL the way back to the plane and beg them to get back on so he could retrieve the missing blanket.

SIGH. The days when you could do that! yes, they let him back on so he could get the blanket off. No bomb threats back then or thoughts of it!



The End.

  12. OH MY GOD! I still sleep with mine and it's the same blanket as yours, but white.. and it may or may not have faded balloons on them! They travel with me and everything. I joke and say one of them will be my veil at my wedding... I'm scared Nick is going to take me seriously one day and burn them. Needless to say, that would be insta-break up right there. Love my blankie!

    xoxo
