These are my shorts. This is my blanket.
For M and her shorts and blanket!
By Mummy.
These are my shorts. This is my blanket
One night I lay in my daddy’s arms
He was wearing shorts
I played with the cords
That hung from the shorts
That was the start of my longing for you
When I am tired I held those cords
Wrapped them around my fingers and held them tight
Now they are mine and I cuddle them all day
Daddy’s shorts and my blanket
They come everywhere with me
To the park, in the car and to bed
They’re my comfort items
My special things
My safety net
Wherever I go
They’re there with me
Sometimes I wear them
Mummy and daddy laugh
They’re too big for me, but I don’t care!
I love them forever!
These are my shorts and this is my blanket
Wherever I go
They’re there with me

Such a sweet poem 🙂 I think it's so cute when kids get attached to one of their parent's items, and it's a great way of helping them feel secure 🙂
Thanks for linking up to #AnythingGoes

Hi Morna, thanks for your comment. I thought shorts were quite random, but I think an anorak just beats it! x

This is adorable! My oldest son has a blanket that he took everywhere! Luckily unless he is sick he usually keeps it in his room now. #AnythingGoes

Hi Kristen, thanks for your comment. I can't remember if I had anything like this when I was younger. It's funny how a blanket can make them feel secure isn't it x
