Spring Hats

“We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.”
– Marian Wright Edelman



Spring Hats – 4″ x 6″ Watercolor

These hats certainly look tame, compared to the royal head finery I saw last week.  Did you know that those little feathery or fancy hats are called fascinators?  I think they would be so fun to wear!  I wear my Tilley hat a lot, but I don’t think Eufaula, OK is ready for fascinators.  he he :)

Big thanks to our Military men and women this morning!

About Marian Wright Edelman

American activist Marian Wright Edelman, who founded the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) as a voice for poor, minority, and handicapped children, was the first African-American woman to practice law in Mississippi. She was born in 1939 in South Carolina. Her father, a Baptist preacher, died when she was 14; his last words to her were, “Don’t let anything get in the way of your education.” She graduated from Yale Law School in 1963. Her many awards include the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
