Hi Barb- this little gal is usually pretty quiet and isn't a babbler (unlike me) but she was very excited to get her quilt. I told her every one of the hearts had a hug and lots of love in it for her. So hopefully she will feel most loved and appreciated while snuggling in it. She has declined on many occasions to wear a bicycle helmet (it would fit under our scrub hats) to protect the brain we both share :):) .... uh, I need that brain alot :D :D
