You may not believe this but for Christmas both Julie and I (Rose) received a white shirt from our mothers. When I received the white button down shirt for Christmas from my mother, I did not know that she was giving me what I think is going to the most wonderful gift of my life or at least the year 2012. When she gave me the shirt, my mother told me that she was giving practical gifts this year and that everyone needs a nice white button down shirt. She told me that recently, she had seen Barbara Bush on TV wearing a white shirt and jeans and Barbara was saying that this was her favorite outfit. My mother continued to tell me that the white shirt she was giving me was iron-free and could be worn with jeans, dress slanks, a skirt or a suit.
Well, you are still wondering why this is the most wonderful gift of my life, though a white shirt is a practical gift and can be worn with just about anything. But as I told you, Julie also received a white shirt from her mother and I was telling her about my mother and Barbara Bush. Well because it is a New Year, Julie, who is the creative one, came up with this idea for a theme for our New Year's Resolutions. The theme would be famous women like Barbara Bush and her white shirt. Since we both have white shirts we could make resolutions with famous women in mind. So we are going to plan activites to laugh and learn from famous women and fill our white shirts and the blank year ahead of 2012 with wonderful and funny memories.
Happy New Years!
