I shall try to state this as factually as possible so excuse my any abruptness of tone.
My brother and his wife are due to have a baby next month after, very sadly, suddenly and unexpectedly, having their first child die the day after he was born.
I have 2 children as does my other brother. For each of these children, my granny knitted them 2 newborn size cardigans. She died 2 years ago.
I want to give one of the cardigans from my son, one he never wore, to my brother for his child.
My OH says that he doesn't want to give it away as he really felt that he had a connection with my granny in a way he doesn't with the rest of my family, had great respect from her (we were going to give her name to my son if he had been a girl). However,giving away this one cardigan, still leaves us with 3 - one that was too small for my daughter, the one she actually wore and the one my son actually wore.
Would I be unreasonable to just go ahead and send the cardigan to my brother anyway. It would be ages (if ever) before OH would notice.
Or should I respect his wishes on this?
