Entry FeedIs it true that April showers bring May flowers? I may have to keep on my allergy medication through June if all of this rain keeps up!
I just learned that my 7 year old is too old for his froggy raincoat, the very one that he loved last year. He has T-ball tonight, in the rain, and I was so happy to have found his raincoat so that he wouldn't get wet! He took one look at it, and said, "I don't want to wear that."
Then Husband jumped in, "He wants to look cool!" and then tried to put his running jacket on our son. My husband is 6 foot - his jacket does not fit our 7 year old. The T-ball team is 6, 7 and 8 year-olds, so my son is with older boys, and he doesn't want to stand out.
Personally, I just want him to be dry. I am actually a little happy that silly rubber boots are "in" because I can be practical and sort of cute at the same time. If they made a ladybug raincoat in my size, I would consider it.
My baby is growing up. At 7 he still doesn't dress himself, but he doesn't want to look "baby-ish." At least I still have the other two.
Can I just say what a relief to locate an individual who truly knows what theyre talking about on the net. You certainly know how you can bring an problem to light and make it essential. More people must read this and recognize this side of the story. I cant believe youre not a lot more common simply because you absolutely have the gift.
