Since this is Adam’s birthday week I have another photo of him.
Adam has a present wrapped in newspaper…trademark of Susan’s daycare. He is joined on the couch by other children…everyone must have been instructed to throw their blankies/toys/pillows on the floor. I think I recognize Adam’s blankie on the floor. He had the same blankie for a number of years…his mother bought several of the same kind of blanket…and since he chewed on his blankie his mother kept cutting off the teeth marked edges. His blankie got smaller and smaller. I believe he was three years old in this photo in 2004.
Oh my! What a precious photo! I see some little one has a shiner.
ReplyDeleteIf I recall correctly it was a birthmark.
DeleteThat is so sweet! I am surprised no one is crying, though, at having to part with their blankie ... even for an instant!
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny about Adam's blanket. My son did the same thing to his blanket and I just kept cutting the edges off. After he left home I kept his blanket and put new binding on what was left. Gave it to him a few years back. Was he ever surprised.
ReplyDeleteBlankies...oh my. That brings back memories! My son wore his out and my oldest son decided to throw his away one day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a bunch of cuties! And now they're all grown up, but they were good to sit for a picture like that. Happy birthday again, Adam! :-)
ReplyDeleteCute picture.
ReplyDeleteSuch curies. I had an inhome daycare for years when our kids were small. This brings back memories. I do miss having little ones around. It looks like they all got along very well.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Little ones do love the satin bindings on blankets and get very attached to the blanket itself.
ReplyDeleteCute group of kiddos! They do grow up way too fast.
ReplyDeleteTo think all those little ones are all grown up now. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet memories!
ReplyDeleteOh he is so cute, such great memories
DeleteLike Betsy I also had an inhome daycare for many years. Unlike Betsy I don't miss those days. That's quite a line-up of little ones on the couch. I hope Susan had helpers!!
ReplyDeleteLook at all those towheads(blonds)....not sure where the name towhead came from. What an adorable picture...wish we could turn back the clock w hen they were all little...just for a day or 2.
