Max's Blessing




When Missy had her first two babies, my Grandma Smith made her a white blanket for each baby to use for their blessings. Unfortunately, my grandma passed away before the other 5 kids were born. Kimi always borrowed one of Missy's blankets to use on her kids specials days. When Kimi announced she was pregnant, I decided to knit her a white blanket to use that would just be hers, no more borrowing. I did a good job of keeping it a secret---amazingly since I take my knitting everywhere with me, I just managed to work on other projects when she was around. I wish I could say the knitting turned out as well as the secret keeping. It's not perfect but it's do-able. It was fun to make it and surprise Kimi with her own "blessing" blanket. I know it's not quite as special as one made by Grandma, but I made it with every bit as much love.

We were glad to be able to participate in Max's special day.
