Today I shall be mostly over-thinking bonnets

Last year I felt bad because for the Easter bonnet parade, I went to the huge effort of wrapping a few fake flowers around a cheap sunhat for S. I saw other parents had gone to much trouble to make wonderful confections of haberdashery and felt guilty.

This year I spent a few hours every day this week creating this masterpiece of a hat.


Am I happy? Sort of, but now I'm worried that I perhaps over-egged it. Ha ha, pun intended. This year I noticed how many parents had simply stuck fake flowers to cheap hats! There's no winning with me. I expect other parents are feeling guilty - or think I'm a woman with too much time on her hands.

They may be right!
