I woke up this last Sunday morning like I do every Sunday... I got on the elliptical for 20 minutes, showered, started breakfast, got the kids clothes laid out and then went to dry my hair and put on my make-up. As I stood looking into the mirror and putting on my make-up I realized completely out of the blue, that I had missed the anniversary of my Grandmother's death. My grandma passed away 7 years ago this last January 6th. This was the first year that I didn't remember her on that day, and I felt so horrible. Then it just hit me, I could honor her on this very Sunday morning by wearing one of her hats to church. So, I got dressed and went and picked out a hat to wear. I took great pride that morning walking into church wearing HER hat. I miss my grandma all year long, every year...About the hat - my grandma wore a hat to church every Sunday. And she wore a different hat every Sunday for a year. When she passed away she owned almost 100 hats... which we divided between my mom, 2 aunts and 6 of us granddaughters. I think that every January from now on I will wear a hat to church in honor of my grandma.

Very sweet, I have been thinking about my Grandma Marie a lot lately as her bday is in April, and she was my nanny for the first 8-10yrs of my life.
Grandmothers seem to have all the best, and most classic stuff!!!
