Today marked the big Michigan-Ohio State football game. We were all decked out in maize and blue to cheer on our beloved Wolverines. Olivia even requested a Michigan victory when it came time for her to tell Santa what she wanted for Christmas. Notice the disappointment in her face though when Saint Nick provided an un-jolly updated score. He said the best he could do was to encourage Lloyd Carr, U of M’s head coach, to retire so that the team’s losing streak to the Buckeyes might be retired along with him. (The rumor following the game was that Carr would announce his retirement on Monday.)
Yes, Olivia, there really is a Santa Claus. As consolation, he gave our disconsolate daughter a teddy bear – Olivia immediately named her White Bear and claims she’s Laga’s sister – and we got her a Christmas cookie.
