Laundry musings

I'm washing the baby clothes today. And it seems that each little sweater and cap have brought memories of people.

The beautiful zip-up-the-back white sweater that Aunt Connie and Uncle Wilfred gave to Tommy. How I miss Aunt Connie!

The lovely blue and white one with matching hat that Ann gave Patrick.

Two sweet caps hand- knit by Taryn for Matthew.

White hat and booties from friends we met in Turkey.

A multi-colored, tassled hat from dear Yakima friends, Brenda and Greg. We continue to pray for Brenda's return to full health.

Socks that Nancy sent to Joseph.

Funny, there's very little pink in these piles. ;-) Lots of white, restful pale green, and lovely baby blue.

So many memories of sweet smelling little ones making little o's with their mouths and yawning those stretchy, eyes-scrunched-up yawns.

Not long now until a new little one fills these clothes...

s/he's already filling our hearts.
