Blankets & Brotherly Love

Luke’s Mom has made it her goal to crochet an afghan for each of her Grandchildren. This is a big project on her part because between her three married children, she has been blessed with ten grandchildren within eight years! 🙂

When we got together at Thanksgiving, Mom gave Bethany her newly crocheted afghan, which was very similar to the one she had made for Phillip. This led to some unnecessary worry on Peter’s part. Here is how the conversation went:

Peter: Mom, Mom, will you come upstairs? I need to show you something!

Me: I’ll be up in just a minute.

Peter: Mom, I need to show you Phillip’s blanket. It’s broken.

Me: What? (and I go upstairs)

Peter (with an urgent expression): Look (and holds up both afghans)

Me: Oh! Sweetie, that is 2 different blankets. Grandmommy made Bethany one, too. Isn’t that cool?

It was the cutest thing! And the best part is that he was so concerned for his brother. That just warms a mother’s heart!
