Hat!

The other night Katie chose for me to read The Cat in the Hat to her. When the cat first appeared, Katie pointed him out. She doesn't call him The Cat in the Hat. She calls him Hat. When she said Hat, I thought she was just showing me the character, but she said it several times, ran to the kitchen and started digging through the cupboards. Katie came back wearing her own hat - a food storage container. She stayed in costume until the book was over.

Later that night, Katie decided that it was someone else's turn to wear the hat. In a very loving gesture, she gave the hat away.

You can wear the hat while I find a sticker to put on your paw!

Hat, Chloe! Hat!
