Remembering our precious time together.

My Colleen loved her Barney! It was her favourite toy. I had a brown doggy (stuffed toy) and my granddaughter, Lee-Ann, had her favourite little pink bunny. While Colleen was still alive, little Lee-Ann spent a lot of time with Colleen, playing games with her and also helped with the care giving. So I took Barney, the doggy and the bunny, and I crocheted a nice big sleeping bag for them! They represent that very special time, when the 3 of us were together!! Having them on my bed, close to me, is almost like keeping a little piece of the past with me everyday of my life!!! This is the closest that I can get to my precious Colleen!!

Such a beautiful sleeping bag for the representation of the time you all were together. I too appreciate this symbol of love, how beautiful your thoughts are for this sacred time in your life. I look back to seek those times too. Sending love your way...

I\'m glad the special sleeping bag makes you feel closer to your Colleen. You created a unique place to keep these animals near you always.

That is darling. David had a Barney doll too. He couldn\'t quite get the B when he was a toddler, so he called him Narney.

This is adorable. Jennifer has a bear named Puffy and Marissa \'s was Sweetie. I wonder where they are. I think I will look for them and make a sleeping case too. Be well and peace, Kathy
