MONSTERS

This is my granddaughter Kylie with her 'MY PET MONSTER'.  She got  him when she was about three years old.  He protected her from bad things that live in the dark.

She loved him  nearly to pieces over the years so I have been sewing and patching  the old battered toy in preparation of Adyson's arrival and as I sew, I sew love and prayers into every stitch because the world can be a very scary place for a child.


I know children can't be protected from all the bad things out there but I am not going to worry.  I am rejoicing  in this baby.  Kylie will be 21 in less than a week and she grew up to be a strong beautiful woman in spite of the bad monsters in the world and in her life and I know she will raise Adyson to be strong and loving like her mother.


AT THE END OF THE DAY... we can't make all the monsters in the world go away for our children but our family has battled monsters before...and won...because love is a powerful weapon.

"If a child lives with love,
she learns that the world is
a wonderful place to live in."
