Ode to Lovey


Man who would have thought a little stuffed animal could mean so much. I know there are so many of you out there who know exactly what I am talking about. Jake has had his Lovey since he was born--he pretty much took to it as soon as he could hold on to things. His Aunt Ni Ni and Net Net gave it to him and even went out and found a back up Lovey after we realized the importance of this little lamb. Of course, a couple years later and one too many change outs--Jake quickly figured out that he had TWO loveys. So now we have Lovey and Nuther Lovey. They or at least one of them goes with him pretty much everywhere. Anyone who knows him knows how important Lovey is---Its Mommy and Daddy then Lovey or really it could be the other way around if you asked him!!! You can tell too--I swear I do wash them but they are already becoming thread bare and always look dirty. They are worn with love. It really is sweet. Who would have thought a little stuffed animal could bring so much comfort and joy to one little man.? Well it does at our house. I got a very RARE shot of him standing still with BOTH Loveys in hand.

Jake and I have this in common. I still have my Pooh Bear and Snoopy. They get taken into the bathroom with me when the tornado siren goes off. Plus the cat. . .

Oh... that's precious! Love those little boys and their loveys. (ps - I knew those panels would look cool in a shot - ha)

Wow, that's actually a really good picture of him! Kind of looks like a school picture or something. And yes I think that loving on stuffed animals runs in the family seeing as how Bear Bear has travelled with me all the way across the pond.
