THAT SNOWSUIT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME

In the mid-1990s, we bought a comfy, cozy snowsuit for our younger son, Moss, after our two older children snuggled in the stiffer, less enjoyable outerwear of their day. When Moss outgrew the cobalt blue fleece with the red patterned trim, I washed it and hung it in my clothes closet for future distribution.

Much like the treasured bris gown that my husband, our sons, and grandsons wore, our son Moss and his nephews, our two cherished grandsons, have now worn the well-made snowsuit. After Easy outgrows it, hopefully, it will be washed and stored for future generations. After all, the bris gown is only 74 years old, and at 31, the snowsuit has many years to catch up.

Seeing Easy in the perfectly fitting snowsuit awakened fond memories and stimulated the desire to share the best of times in a blog post. Do you have pictures of family heirlooms to share?
