In thinking about happier memories, I began browsing the many many many pictures of Henry on my phone. Several of these pictures had not only Henry, but also his pal Mickey Mouse. Mickey was one of Henry's first toys that he actually took interest in. He was maybe a couple months old, and I noticed he always "cuddled" his burp cloth at bottle time. The thought finally popped into my head to try one of his animal "blankets." He had one with a monkey, Nala from the Lion King, a dog, and a couple others. But Mickey was definitely his favorite. Perhaps it was because he knew Mommy loves Mickey...but more likely the crinkly ears got his attention.
Mickey went just about everywhere with Henry...to the store, restaurants, Grandma's house and Grandpa's house, Florida, the pumpkin patch, the apple orchard... He went so many places that we even got a spare to take to daycare. Plus that way we always had an extra in case anything happened to one!
We miss our little guy every second of every day, but these memories and pictures definitely put a smile on my face tonight ❤️
