When I was little I had a coat that was dark blue. It was very warm. Riley had a similar coat, but hers was lighter than mine. My coat was a mother to me, warm and gentle, wrapping her arms around me. The coat was warm and loving in a way. I would wear it outside to play and also to and from school. It was not too tight or too loose; it fit perfectly. It was very comfortable and fit for a long time before I outgrew it. It got dirty a lot because of how much I wore it. It was my favorite coat.
