Thank you, Mitzie!
I meant to thank you for the idea you planted in my head in your last comment too. We went to the science center a few days afterward and they had little knight costumes for the kids to play with (the theme right now is castles and dragons) - they were basically like art smocks with a little loop for a sword. Anyway, I immediately pictured two little boys sword fighting in them the way you’d mentioned in your comment and I knew I could make the knight costume since it looked pretty simple.
I’m getting pretty excited about this whole knight business! =)
It is a lot of fun, this knight business. Charlotte has the best of both worlds. She can be a knight or a princess!
Haha, or a dragon!
Last night I started telling her the story of Merlin and the dragon. Gosh I love this age!
“or a dragon”. THAT didn’t occur to me at all. lol
I love when you talk about love <3
This breaks my heart a little… going through some of this right now with DS2, who is growing faster than I ever thought possible just a few months ago. Don’t yet know if we’ll have another baby, and I’m struggling a little with the “last time” feelings over things like onesies. I can’t wait for what is to come with both my kids, but there’s no denying how bittersweet some of these everyday things can be… or how easy it is to forget some of the tiniest details when they’re no longer part of each day.
