Hannah likes to dress up. She likes dresses and bracelets and necklaces. I indulge her by getting her pretty little coats when they are good prices and finding her accessories that are appropriate for her age. When I was a child, I would fight against all of this. My grandmother would try to get me to wear pearls to no avail. Now I always wear some jewelry. Here we are just after church. Hannah is still in her coat and her nose is red from the cold, but she looks like a proper little lady. I am interested to see if she continues to enjoy classic fashion as she grows.
Christmas was nice. The weather was good and I was able to run like I usually do. I served a Thanksgiving Dinner because I spent Thanksgiving in Pennsylvania with my sister. It has been a busy decade. I only have two years where something major didn't happen. On to 2020.
