Mia has an assortment of hairbows that I've picked up here and there. I love hairbows, but I haven't made them a regular part of her attire. On days when I put a bow in her hair, more often than not the bow disappears somewhere between the time I drop her off for preschool and when I pick her up. Since school started a couple of weeks ago, Mia has been expressing a desire to wear a bow. She also tells me, "Bella has big bows." Mia wants not just any bow, she says she wants, "the big white one." Since "the big white one" is too dirty to wear (I've been hiding it with the intent to use it as a pattern for a replacement), I am unable to comply.
The babysitter has been witnessing this and the other day, she brought a big bag of super-sized bows with her. She explained they were given to her as gifts for her infant, but she doesn't plan to use them. Mia was delighted and insisted on wearing as many as she could fit on her head.
To complete the outfit, she tried on the pink suede Ugg-style boots someone gave us. If my Mom was here, I'm sure she'd say, "That's quite a getup."
My mother would have said the same thing. Must be a generational thing. Ann V.
