head like a hat

My husband has a fantastic head and to that he loves a great hat, all styles, all sorts. Our daughter ..adorable.. (I can think a 19 year old is still adorable right!?!) with her fantastic hair and like her daddy a fantastic head for a hat. There was never a lack of enthusiasm towards a new chapeau coming off the needles, she would scoop it up and dash off the very second it was finished ..but me, I never considered myself much of a hat person, except seasonally as a kid, in my purple and white thick ribbed E.T. hat, but really as an adult, never.

I always thought it was a hair thing, either I didn’t want to mess it up and static charge the frizz or it was that pixie cut, that made my big head look big weird in a hat!? ..but really, I think maybe it was I just never found that perfect hat, that wonderful hat that makes me feel so perfectly me, a little quirky, a little sadly sweet, with just a little tude.

Hats On
I’m romanced by this one so much, and recently I did something I had never done ..wore a hat as part of an outfit and not just something to be removed upon arrival! (I will admit I got kind of sweaty warm wearing it (hot blooded + sweaty head = kinda gross) and thought “crap now what, I can’t exactly take it off and somehow NOT have super f’d up shabby hair! I endured for fashions sake ..rosy cheeked and all ♥)

For Gram

Our hearts are completely broken, the tears are constantly streaming with all the love and sadness as we say goodnight to our sometimes terrible, always wonderful Good Boy Gram.
