The joys of Jack's blanket

Jack loves graham crackers and his blanket. You can often catch all three of them (graham cracker, blanket, and Jack) snuggling together. And when there isn't a g.c. around, you're sure to see dried bits of it crushed into the blanket. You see, Jack gets so excited about his blanket, that he can barely swallow his favorite snack before putting a corner of his blanket into his mouth- maybe to soak up the rest of the cracker? Or, more likely, to experience all his favorite things at once.

The kid literally absorbs his blanket. If he sees it across the room, he'll start breathing a bit fast and repeat a somewhat whiny, excited, high-pitched "huh" sound. He'll then grab the blanket, and either inhale half of it or throw it on the ground and face plant right into the middle of it. I tell you, the kid is passionate about his lovey.

I really have nothing profound or insightful to say about his blanket. I just love that he loves it so much. And, the fact that he is unabashadly in love with it. I like that.
