Shine on, David

Here is a picture of David in the shepherd outfit that I sewed for him last week. A while back we had a discussion about how it was time for him to wear guy-type dress-up outfits more often than he wore his sister's princess and ballerina dress-up outifts, at which time he pointed out that he didn't have many guy-character clothing choices. He was right! So off we went to the fabric store and he picked the pattern and fabric for this new dress-up outfit. He calls it his "only a boy named David" outfit.


And to the right is a picture of David with his lovely shiner -- it doesn't show up nearly as much in the picture as it does in real life, but you get the general idea! Yesterday he got the (not so brilliant!) idea to tie a cable between the basketball hoop pole and the back of his three-wheeled chopper-style bike, and then take off on the bike...and of course, when he reached the end of the cable, it jerked him and his face slammed into the handlebars. Have I mentioned that he inherited my penchant for klutziness?!

I liked you in the costume without the shiner, David. Sorry you have and injury but you are enrolled in the 'school of hard knocks' for years yet!
