A visit with Patch

Okay, I think I am emotionally stable enough at the moment to share a little about my visit with Patch the bear.  For those of you who do not know who Patch is, he is a very very special bear who visits grieving mommy's and families.  He came to me when I needed him the most.  I have had some really really rough days lately and he showed up in the mail when I felt my most helpless.  He got to visit with my Audrey for a while and help me just enough to make it through.  I guess I am not as emotionally sound as I thought because here I sit crying my eyes out because I had to send him on to another grieving mother.  This is so very sad that there has to be more mothers on this list.  You can see all about patch and why and where he was started right on the blog that started it all.  http://patchesthebear.blogspot.com       please visit the page and read some more about how patch came to be!!!!

Patch with my Audrey.  This is the music box that we picked out to carry her with us always.

This was the very first keepsake I received for my little Audrey and still  one of my favorites



I made this for my Audrey but it feels right to send it along with Patch so that he can have something from Audrey.
