It’s me, hi. What a year it has been reddit 😮‍💨

So continues my little reddit tradition of posting my mom for the 6th year in a row. We almost didn’t take a photo this year but I know a handful of people enjoy these posts so we made it happen.

My mom has been donating crocheted blankets to sick children over the past 26+ years. In total she made 46 afghans this year, 40 of which she just donated to Jersey Shore Medical Hospital’s Pediatric ICU ward (her 10th year donating to them). She has probably donated over 1,250 blankets to those in need at this point in her lifetime. From preemie blankets to veteran lap blankets to charity auction blankets, if you find her a pattern she can make it!

Like always, and especially after this extremely stressful year for the seacogen family, I wanted to show her some appreciation from internet strangers since only a handful of people see her work and she rarely gets thank you notes (which we understand as parents with sick children have enough to be worried about).

Overall, my mom is a self-taught crocheting machine who has been crocheting for 57 years and she’s not stopping anytime soon! 😊 This is just a daughter’s attempt at showing the world how amazing her mom is. Parents brag about their children all the time so why can’t we return the favor, right?

As always, happy holidays reddit! Let’s hope for a better 2025.
