Their First Bed

I have been struggling to come up with this post. I can tell you that the picture above this line if of a bassinet. It is made by Carters and it uses John Lennon Bedding. That is a simple description but it doesn’t really serve my purpose.

It doesn’t tell you that it served as the first bed my children used or that six other children also greeted the world in it. It doesn’t begin to do justice. It isn’t capable of telling you what it meant to use it or how hard it was to break it down into pieces, wrap it in plastic and then store it in the garage.

Maybe I am too sentimental, but I love that bassinet.

That is a picture of a bassinet with John Lennon Bedding. It is an image that is burned into my mind. Why? Because the very first bed my children used was a John Lennon bassinet
