Xavi and the Snoedel



You may remember the snoedel from Camilla's days. "Snoedel" means snuggle in Dutch, and these special super-soft blankies are made by a local 4-H group. The center is made of soft and absorbent lama's wool, and the outside is covered in flannel. I wore the snoedel next to my skin so that it absorbed my scent and then the nurses put it in with Xavi to comfort him while I'm not there. This was an especially sweet day, coming in to find Xavi cuddled up with the snoedel like this.
