I don't know why, but I was never one of those kids with a security toy or blanket. My husband tells me he walked around with a pillowcase when he was young, and my oldest daughter had a blanket she carried around for many years, even sneaking it to school in her backpack in 1st grade at one point, but me - nope. I don't recall having or doing anything of the like.
However, my little sister had at least two items she paraded around with. She kept a blanket with her for way too long and I jokingly changed its name from 'blankie with holes in it' to 'holes with a blanket'. Our grandma once persuaded my sister to throw her blanket away when she was 4 or 5 for some money, but as soon as Grandma left, my sister grabbed the blanket back out of the trash. She isn't stupid.
The other item she carried with her was a stuffed bear that she named, Brian. This bear went everywhere with her and she rarely had him out of sight. And unbeknownst to me, she's carried that bear around for all 30 years of her life.
A couple of months ago she shared a post on Instagram that made one of her friends do such an awesome act of kindness that I knew I needed to make a page about it. Thankfully, a designer created a kit that worked pretty well for this story.
