Tonight I found a very old baby blanket of Eden's buried in a box in Levi's room. She was never really attached to it when she was teeny...but I thought it would be fun to show it to her. So, I did.
I told her someone had gotten it for her when she was an itty baby, but I didn't remember who.
Several minutes later, Eden said...
"Grandmother gave this to me. It smells like her."
I'm not sure why the blanket smells like my mom and I'm pretty sure she didn't give it to Eden. But something about the way she said it made my heart so happy. You could just hear the unspoken connection between the two of them.
She loves her Grandmother. And with very good reason.
It was a very sweet (and simple) moment.
