Queen of the Wild Frontier

Out from the mountaintops in Tennessee

there was a girl just as sweet as can be

Raised in the woods so she knew every tree.

Got her a bear, when she was only three!

Maddy, Maddy Crockett! Queen of the Wild Frontier!

The bear is still in her hands, a small beanie baby she picked up from Aunt Shain. Take a look at that amazing hat: In the 1950's, nearly every child had to have a coonskin cap. Daddy wasn't around back then, but that doesn't mean he didn't want one either - especially after watching Fess Parker as Davy Crockett. That was great television, still enjoyable today!

In honor of Fess, Madison put on her coonskin cap again this week. She likes putting that one on because of the tail hanging off the back! Of course, we got it in Disney World in Frontierland. Madison enjoyed wearing that just as much as a tiara - which just goes to show you how tough this little one can be!

Can you believe it snowed today? We played it safe and spent much of the day indoors. But you'd better believe Madison is rip-roarin' and ready for Spring to start. She's ready to go exploring outdoors, heading to the woods to find her a bear or something!

"Be always sure you are right - then go ahead."
