several years ago, for christmas, my grandparents decided to buy everyone in the family (that's their seven kids, spouses, grandkids and spouses....) fleece items from old navy. some were pull overs, some were zip ups.
i still wear mine.
as does jason.
one time grandmoth mentioned that she loved seeing jason wear his because he looked like a big huggable teddy bear.
grandmoth hugged jason the first time she met him. at the grand rapids brewing company for my dad's birthday dinner.
he remarked later that it was a very memorable experience for him, not coming from a big family of huggers like i do.
later he remarked that it clearly wasn't as special for grandmoth as it was for him, because he discovered that she was just a 'hugging whore'...
ah...those hugs...that almost squeezed the life out of you in the best way.
it's been two years that she's been gone. jason wore his fleece today. i hugged that teddy bear for her.
