Girls this will be the last of Kai's memory quilt I'll show you. Just had to show you the bit where Kai dresses up as a girl and the Motorbike. The Rainbow has special meaning to us. As a perfect Rainbow shone over Kai when the Paramedics brought him to Peta

thank you all so much. I was there when he was born, and we were so close. He was my "sweetheart" and followed Grandpa around hence being Grandpa's Shadow. Christmas and New year will not be the same. All he wanted last year was to have Christmas at Uncle Dude's ( his name for David our son) and new motor bike boots. He even wanted to help his mother pay for them too, by doing her ironing for her. She was a single mother and bought him up on her own from the time he was 3 years old. He was a credit to her and was also her life. Thank you for all your loving thoughts.

Roslyn, you make my heart hurt with this beautiful offering. How blessed Kai was to be so loved here on earth, too.;)

Oh Ros, this is wonderful and I understand what you mean about a Rainbow, my sister says every times she sees one - it is because my Daddy is watching over us - so that square has a very nice touch, if you ask me - thanks for doing such a great quilt and sharing it with us.

Thank you Shirlene. It will be hard this Christmas. I don't know how Peta will handle it. Our no 1 project is to make her know that she is loved and hope that we all get through the week,I know that tears will fall by the bucket loads as they do whenever we get together . We have a grand daughter to the youngest daughter and she feels the loss so much. Whenever she sees a "Rainbow" she comes and tells us that Kai is here. Makes a person 's heart break. sorry
