A Weighted Blanket for Alaina to curl up under

Posted Nov 1, 2024
Alaina has always been afraid of storms. Each rumble of thunder sends shivers down her spine, leaving her feeling vulnerable and alone. Recognizing her fear, her foster mom came up with a comforting idea: a special "storm blanket" just for Alaina. They are considering making it a bit heavier, believing that the extra weight could provide her with a sense of security during those turbulent nights. Alaina is bravely facing her fears, and with each passing storm, she is determined to find her inner strength and embrace the courage within her.

Alaina is 8 years old and lives in MO

Alaina loves her teachers and school; she is very confused as to why she has to take off the summer. She is going to summer school but still doesn't want a break from school. She does like to play outside with her sibling. Alaina loves her animals and calls them her best friends.
