Back when Mateo was 9 months old, my mom gave him a hat that she had knitted some time before.
It was henceforth officially called the "grandma hat" and it accompanied him everywhere he went.
We never really gave it a second thought when the following seasons it still fit just fine
and still kept him warm through all his adventures
and breaks from adventures.
Now that he's three plus, I had to stop and wonder for a moment about this amazing hat that simply always seems to fit just right.
Like grandma's love it only seems to get bigger and more comfy with time.
Grandmas have a very special kind of magic.
Thank you grandma and long live the grandma hat!

That is going to be one well worn hat! I had a vest my grandma knit me and that too seemed to grow as I did!

This is a perfect hat in every way. I'm pretty sure that grandma's ARE made up of magic! And I've already commented once but it bears repeating...I LOVE that picture of cutie Mateo and the smile graffiti!
