Remembered in love!

We are back in blog land after seven months of life changing events. Love exists in ALL ways and in each one of us. It always will be the best part of our lives.

Life is short not to send love, give love, and appreciate those who are in your life. Special tokens of love are so memorable to each of us. We always want to re-member and be remembered whether we are here on earth or transition to our next life. That is why adornments get passed down generation to generation. A time for remembering those who have left us.

Ellie, my partner, lost her dear beloved hubby on August 30th, 2016, so you can only imagine that blogging was not on the list. She was attending to her family and honoring the love she and Dewain shared for 52 years this month.

We love sharing stories about our bonding blankets; A couple of years ago Ellie sent Dewain a bonding blanket to let him know how much she cherished their love.

Dewain believed in our Bonding Blanket; he was so very supportive of all the things we wanted to accomplish with this little blanket of love.

Dewain slept with his Bonding Blanket every night up until the day he left planet earth. His Scent is left behind on his Bonding Blanket, and Ellie assures me that eventually she will wash this blanket filled with his love and replace the smell with his aftershave Cologne. Love never dies!

RIP Sweet Man!

“Silently, one by one, in the infinite meadows of heaven,

Blossomed the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the angels.” 
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Big girls don't cry... They just receive a Bonding Blanket. 

This story is so dear to me. 

My BFF wanted to have her teeth fixed so bad for many years, it always seemed so out of reach for her. We talked about it all the time, she would feel down, and I would lift her up with optimism, saying, 'you will have teeth baby'.

She would say I was always so optimistic about it, only because it was hard for her to see how getting there would look. 

Together we took baby steps, and of course it happened, the appointments, the lay-out of the procedure, and a Dentist she liked and trusted. 

After all the diagnosing, financing were all done, it was time to schedule the appointment to get this job done. She set up her time, and much to her surprise, it was going to be a 4 hour surgery to get EVERYTHING done, she needed, crowns, root canals, fillings, etc; I was BLOWN away, and so was she. My friend has sensitive teeth to begin with, now she was about to embark upon 4 hours of what I would call 'Torture'. I was not sure how all this was truly going to pan out, after all, how much drilling can a gal take, not to mention having your mouth open for 4 hours. 

Up until the appointed day, she was worried about the whole procedure. Not to mention that morning.

I could not be with her on that morning, her BF was taking her, they were going to come to me after, so I could care for her. 

The next best thing I could think to offer her support and comfort, was to present her with one of our bonding blankets. I told her I would infuse my love and energy into it, give it to her, and she would know I was with her in spirit. She loved the idea, the day before we were hanging out, she asked me to wear this bonding blanket on my person, so that she could smell my scent (which she loves), and know that my energy was truly in that blanket. I did just that...

All day long, everywhere we went, I had that blanket, stuffed in my shirt...LOL....What a crazy sight to see, this blanket coming out of my top was noticeable. We went everywhere that day, shopping, lunch etc;. People stopped to ask me what it was all about. I just said, 'I am infusing my love into this blanket so my GF will have something tangible to take with her to the dentist office'. What a great idea were the many responses...

It truly was...

The surgery came and went, my GF got her NEW beautiful smile, her mouth is now healthy, and to top it off, she loves her bonding blanket so much, she sleeps with it every night.
