Q – Quilt
It had been in his wife's family for generations and when they got married it was given to them. The quilt that they were both huddled under right then and there was comfortable and warm. Right now they were outside with their two children and they were camping. They had just had their dinner and smores, which both children loved. They were sitting around the campfire and telling ghost stories. Both children were also cuddled under blankets too. When they were done with their story the two children would tell their own story.
He loved spending time with his family and was glad that he wasn't his father. He couldn't see his father spending time with him like this. He couldn't see him throwing a baseball to his children, or playing football with his son. He couldn't see him taking him camping fixing Smores and telling ghost stories. He did all of that with his children.
The Quilt was taken back to the large tent that they all slept in. When the kids were older they would have their own tent, but right now they were too young to sleep in a tent by themselves. He didn't want them waking up and getting lost.
After they got home the following day they took the quilt and washed it and then when it was dried they put it on their bed. This quilt had a lot of good memories not only for his wife, but also for him and their children. One day the first one to get married would get the quilt and they would make their own memories with it.
He smiled as he dragged a hand over the quilt and then walked out of the room.
