Btw, thank you for the condolences, though she wasn't my biological grandmother, I regarded her as my adopted-granny, as did the rest of Valerie's blog followers. She touched many lives in her own unique way.
While I prayed for Granny and hoped for a miracle, I guess you can say, life came full circle.
My dear friend, Erika experienced her own little miracle last week. She was blessed with a 7 lb. bundle of joy named Tomas. And, let me tell you, he is truly a blessing and has many relatives and friends waiting to spoil him rotten.
While baby Tomas is settling into his new life, I decided to knit a special blanket for him.
Pattern: Kristen Patay's, Baby Cloth patterns
Yarn: Vanna's Choice baby yarn in Little Boy Blue and White
Needles: US size 9 (the pattern suggests a size 3, but the yarn is too thick for a small knitting needle.)
I'm hoping to finish the blanket within a month's time. I'm not ruling out any modifications to the patterns at this point, because I will definitely plan on adding a thick border to each square before seaming them together.
So, until next time friends, let's go out and celebrate life.

What a sweetheart! And the blanket is going to be so cute!
Oh how sweet you are! I am just getting around to visiting blogs again. Thank you so much for this sweet tribute and that baby is a darling. What a blessing.
How sweet is he! I received a knitted blanket for my first son and still have it to this day-he just turned 10. They are amazing special gifts. xoxo
