Monaloca

It’s hard to know what to do with the clothes Melina so quickly outgrows. Like most babies, she has infant outfits she never even had a chance to wear, and on the opposite end, some favorites I don’t have the heart to part with.

My own mom held onto a few special treasures of mine and my sister’s, and has given them to her first and only granddaughter to wear. These include dresses I see in my own baby pictures, a velour 1970s swimsuit, and several sweaters, including the yellow one my grandmother knitted and that Meli proudly wears here. Thanks, Great-grandma!

For now, her own outgrown clothes sit in a box in the basement.
