We got the OPC. I can’t tell you how many compliments she got throughout the cold months. EVERYONE seemed to love that OPC!

Flash forward a year and we are back at Burlington Coat Factory after a humiliating note from Little’s teacher. There are tons of coats in Little’s size and I, as an adult, gravitate toward the subtle colors – chocolate with pink trim, brown with brown trim, etc. Little walks straight up to a puffy YELLOW coat and says, “I like this one.” I looked and the price was good so we tried it on (I had learned my lesson the year before.). She looked adorable and her heart was, once again, sold on a puffy coat. I asked three times, “What about this one?” in regard to different coats and each time she replied nonchalantly, “No – I like this one.” The conversation came to an end when I said, “So, you like the yellow one,” and Little replied, “That’s what I said to you.”
