Comfort Kitties




This afternoon the sun was shining and it was a most beautiful day. A perfect day to sit back and reflect on how lucky I am, and most of us are not to be burden with the fear of anger, abuse and lack of love. Be it the love of a child, a mate, a parent or a friend everyone needs someone to be a part of their lives.

I decided that rather than going outside to enjoy the weather that I would finish two more comfort kitties and get them in the mail to Pat Winters. She is one motivatinal lady, she has brought forth an inner peace in me that I just want to wrap my arms around the whole world and make them feel just as safe as I do, but seeing as I can't, I finished two more little kitties. I will take some pics of them in a bit and put them on the site with hope that it will encourage you to do something to make a difference in someone else's life, the way that Pat has made a difference in not only our lives, but in the lives of those who have no one to hug, no one to hold, and no one to tell their worst fears to, except these little comfort dolls of love. They do keep secrets and right now they are probably the one person these people trust. If you have love in your heart " Pay It Forward ", make a doll to comfot someone who does not have that love and before you send one out say a little prayer that maybe someday they will be on this end of line making comfort dolls for some one else, knowing what it must mean to them. We are blessed.

Your kitties are absolutely gorgeous! I am involved with 13 young ladies who are in an children's home in South Africa and this year I sent them each a scrapbooking kit. The album was made out of brown paper bags and I created little questionnaires on each page that slowly, page by page, made the girls realise just how precious and special they are. I LOVE the idea of 9 lives - this home is particular for sexually abused children. Where, oh where can I get the pattern for your kitties? Would love to make one for each of the girls for their birthdays this year. Carol

Hi Linda

I adore your comfort kitties - but you knew I would. I'm so far behind with my blog reading, but I'm sure glad I read yours. You're a truly special Angel, girlfriend.

Well done.

Hugs - Shari
