Zizi!
by Ashley Weeks Cart
James’ grandmother is one of my favorite people in the Universe. She is incredibly kind, and generous, and thoughtful, and polite, and gentle, and has an endearing Bermudian accent that enhances all of these delightful qualities. She has always made me feel like a welcome and included member of the family, and for that, I am eternally grateful. I love her so.
And that feeling and all that goodness has of course been extended to our daughters. While she can no longer travel, Zizi often sends surprise gifts or goodies for the girls. Most recently, that resulted in these two comfy chairs (from here) embroidered with COURTLAND and ADDISON for the girls’ playroom. Of course, the enormous stuffed dogs that they received from Zizi this Christmas are the perfect “blankets” while they cozy up in their new chairs.
My only fear is that our little house may run out of room for these grand gestures of affection. But we’re adapting to accommodate the love, and dang it’s adorable.
