The personality of the wearer and the hat makes the hat.
~Philip TreacyEvolution is a clever beast. Lily is surely the naughtiest child I’ve met. At a tender 21 months, she has mastered the arts lying, stealing, destroying, escaping, shrieking, disobeying, taunting, and cunning. And yet we love her madly, deeply, fiercely… in our bones.
The primary reason that Lily has not been sold to any Bohemian tribes is that she is hilarious. When she’s not minioning for Satan, she is entertaining us… singing The Soup Opera, tickling us, blowing zerberts on our bellies and arms and cheeks, jumping SO HIGH (a couple centimeters), and making silly-hat jokes.
If somebody starts chastising her poor behavior, she grabs the nearest object, puts it atop her cranium, and says, “You like my pretty hat?” Then she smiles sweetly and with so much self satisfaction because she already knows she has won and all is forgiven.

Lily, stop banging your toy seahorse on the wall we share with the neighbors!
Lily, give Amelia’s pants back to her!
Lily, stop trying to sit on Amelia’s head!
Lily, get lost, I’m trying to sleep!
Seriously, Lily, get lost - I’m trying to sleep!
Lily, get off Amelia’s potty – she needs to pee!
Lily, stop stuffing oatmeal into your belly button!
Lily, get out of here – I’m trying to mop the floor!
Lily, stop flinging your dinner at the window!
Lily, stop trying to throw Amelia’s clothes into the bathtub!
Lily, stop eating the frosting out of oreos and stomping the cookie parts into the carpet.
Lily, stop running off, cackling, with Amelia’s snacks.
Hey Lily, that’s Amelia’s blue hat!
Lily, STOP MAKING MESSES!
“But seriously, guys, do you like this hat?”

I don't know what you're talking about. She was a perfect angel when I saw her last week. But, yeah I love the hats.
Michelle, I couldn't believe it. Add to her list of vices: extremely deceptive.
Love the hats!
