I Love Daddy

For those of you who have never been around for this annual photo shoot, that purple "towel" was something my mom made for my dad when I was a baby, to cover him up on his way out of the shower to getting dressed. Hard to see how that ever worked, but whatever.

On the occasion of my first Christmas, when I was about three weeks old, Mom took a picture of Dad wearing the towel and holding me. We've done it every year since, and for the past few years we've started doing it with my boys.

It's a neat tradition. But I would never wear a towel that small, even in my own home.
