A late delivery that arrived exactly on time
Remember those two Nanat Baby blankets that never made it to the raffle in Lima?It always felt like a “to be continued” moment, and now we finally have the plot twist. Let’s rewind. Last March, I packed up our Flowery Bugs and Skulls and Succulents baby blankets for Operation Smile Peru’s annual fundraising event.
