One thing Little B cannot stop talking about is Messi. Of all the football players, Messi is her favorite. I think the reason is firstly, his face appears the most on newspapers and television. Secondly, his name is pretty simple and easy for a toddler to reiterate.

So as it happened, Little B really wanted a football jersey just like Messi’s. Really, really. And we tried our best to get that jersey for her but we couldn’t find the size that would fit a 3 year old.

What I believe in is, If You Can’t Buy It, DIY It. And that’s what I did – a DIY Messi football jersey.
