A joyous reunion...

It's been two months since Evan's beloved blankie went missing. The adjustment to it being lost didn't take long, though once in a while a slight "I miss my blankie" whine would come out. Well today, an excited Evan emerged from his room clutching his most prized possession... you would have thought he found a $1,000,000 winning lottery ticket in the dark depths behind the bunk beds.

He hasn't let it out of his sight since but I know there will be days to come where we frantically have to search every crevice of the house to find his well loved, could-be-mistaken-for-a-rag, blankie again. I will have to revisit this post to remind me that the search is worth it.

What makes me laugh is Evan has not sucked his thumb since the day after his blankie went into hiding. And about an hour after he found it, the thumb was in his mouth. Evan, the blankie, and the thumb... three old friends reunited!

I am so glad he found it! But you may be sorry...

On the pink room note....steal away!

God bless Evan and his blankie. Carley is 7 and still has to have hers every night. All's well that ends well.
