If Daddy had his way he would have been born in North Carolina. Whenever he is in the "Great Tarheel" state he is comfortable and has a lot of fun. So whenever he is out and about and sees anything that will make C.J. look like a little country girl he probably will buy it.
The one thing about a country girl is that she always will wear a hat. I am glad to report that all the hats that C.J. has worn, her dear ole dad is responsible for. Today the look was priceless. She looked so cute in her hat and she really wore it well. Now neither of C.J.'s grandmothers like hats at all. They will wear them when they have to for fashion, and that is on first Sundays at church. On the other hand her great-grandmothers love hats. So much so that they have closets and attics and basements full of them. They have winter hats, spring hats, summer hats and fall hats. They have big hats and little hats. Hats with ribbons, hats with bows and hats of many colors. Any hat you want to see, trust me, they own one. So Daddy is just starting C.J. off early to follow in her great-grandmothers' footsteps.
I will add that many folks did not like her hat today. They said she looked too much like a country girl. Well that is too bad for them. Daddy likes the country girl look and C.J. wears the look well so as long as Daddy is buying the gear, tough luck for them.
C.J. had a good day today. She ate way more than she usually does and that was new to us. C.J. is still such a happy baby. She enjoys life and she enjoys having fun. She even got her hands on a chicken bone today and sucked on it for a little while. By the slobber on her bib you could see that she enjoyed it. It was a great day of Worship and family today so I would say that C.J. is all GOOD!!! So I am done early tonight. Mommy said, when she saw me writing already, that I did not even let half of the day go by. I told her that I already had my thoughts for the day in order. God is a GREAT God and He is worthy of all my praise! You all continue to pray because prayer changes things, people and situations! Have a great evening.
NOTE TO C.J.: If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a DUCK! If we dress like we are country and we eat country food we have a right to claim the COUNTRY!
