I love this story. I have a friend who crochets a simple prayer shawl for those she loves when something profound happens in their life. She makes it and prays as she does, then she gathers others who know that person and we pray, then that person is literally wrapped in the prayers of those that care for her. Sometimes you just need something you can touch!<BR/>Kathleenkathleen's kit uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00808474723851469170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954521743936057225.post-77229714384067844492008-10-27T07:22:00.000-04:002008-10-27T07:22:00.000-04:00megryansmom...great idea as a baby gift!

Someone gave it to me years ago, and it sits on my desk at work, and when I start feeling like I need it, I rub the faith rock. (I also got a tattoo on my lower back that says Faith during my divorce, as I couldn't carry that rock around 24/7!)Julie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688319872727995846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954521743936057225.post-76945574281249765742008-10-25T06:19:00.000-04:002008-10-25T06:19:00.000-04:00What a cool story.I don't have a blue blanket...bu...What a cool story.<BR/><BR/>I don't have a blue blanket...but when Dan was in Iraq he ask me to send him a lamp. I thought what kind of lamp can I send that would survive the mail? I remembered the small lamp I had in his room on his night stand. I thought, he'll probably say when he opens this package, why did she send this gay thing? But, to my surprise he called me and said thanks for sending the lamp from my room. I love having it here with me. <BR/>This lamp went through a year in Iraq with Dan. With each click of the lamp switch it reminded him of home. He knew that we were here praying and waiting for his safe return. <BR/>The lamp is back in Dan's old room. The lamp and Dan returned safe and sound from his Iraq tour.<BR/>I guess you could say this lamp made Dan feel better in an awful situation, so it must have magic powers.<BR/>I wish that lamp could talk.Call Me Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04556766960758796894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954521743936057225.post-2515079672688151762008-10-25T05:30:00.000-04:002008-10-25T05:30:00.000-04:00Oh, I love all of the good stuff surrounding your ...Oh, I love all of the good stuff surrounding your magic blue blanket. My "magic blue blanket" is my husband's driver's license that was valid when he died, and one of the 50-cent pieces he collected. I have both of those things with me at all times. I don't know why exactly, but they just make me feel better.kim-dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11650811256788756378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954521743936057225.post-35868215166634865562008-10-25T01:32:00.000-04:002008-10-25T01:32:00.000-04:00Airmanmom: That is such a sweet story and shows a ...Airmanmom: That is such a sweet story and shows a continunity in your life that I admire. My son is a pilot of a C130 and will deploy to Kuwait/Iraq in Dec. I will not stop praying but in my mind I will send a piece of "blue blanket" with him for comfort. I am going to take a piece of yours because I don't have one of my own. Thank you for your generosity. Take care & keep up your support for the guys and gals in green and blue.
