When I was little I had a baby blanket that I got the day I was born. But it ended up not just being a gift, it was the thing that I brought every single place I went until I was six. Because of this, many memories were also created with that blanket.
The
first memory I have with that blanket is less of a memory and more of
a story told to me by my parents. While on vacation when I couldn’t talk
yet, we were getting on the plane when we forgot my blanket it the terminal.
Of coarse my mom ran back right when the plane was getting prepared for
takeoff, my mom ran back and grabbed the blanket right in the nick of
time. If she hadn’t gotten it, there would be no story
to tell.
My next memory with my blanket is when I had just learned to talk and wanted to give my blanket a name so I was outside on the slide with my mom while she was gardening and I decided to call it bankie. My mom and I went through a lot of names until we decided on bankie. Some other ideas were bonkers, blanko, badger and some other crazy ideas. I don’t know why this is such a prominent memory but I don’t think I will ever forget that day.
Another memory I won’t forget is when my mom hemmed the ends of bankie because I was chewing on the ends to much. At first I was really upset but after a while I realized that it wasn’t going to be that bad. Again, I am not sure why this is such an important memory to me but I will never forget it. I think it is because that moment really helped me realize that it is really rare that something truly horrible will happen to me. I guess it was just a memory learned.
Well, I guess those are all the memories I have about my blanket. I am sure he is still around somewhere in my house but even though I don’t know where he is now, he helped me get through life the best I could have when I was little
