Just One Thing...



Today is 'Hat Day' at the school.  If the kids at the elementary school bring in $1 for a charity event, they get to wear a hat all day.

My son has a Spiderman hat that he loves to wear, and that's the one he selected for today.

He was so excited about it that he sat out his own clothes last night, a Spiderman shirt, pants w/Spidey on them (even though they're not school pants, I okay'd them this once), and his hat.

This morning after his shower he wanted to get dressed himself. That's a first, usually he wants to dawdle in the morning, so of course I let him.

He did a GREAT job!

Then we got in the car and were driving. I turned around to say something to him, and saw this:


Bwuahahahhahahahahahahhaa...he got dressed perfectly fine, but he got mix-matched socks from the sock basket instead of a matching pair from his chest-of-drawers.

That's funny stuff.  :)

  1. He's a cutie pie and I laughed out loud when I saw the photo of him with the miss matched socks. All kids do that. I love it.

    Have a fabulous day and weekend. ☺

  2. LOL... how cute he looks in that hat Rosie. Could he be color blind or does he just not care if his socks match.

    1. He didn't give a hoot if his socks matched or not, he just wanted to hit the road so he could get to school w/that hat, lol.

  3. He looks so cute in his hat! The mismatched socks is funny. A day or so ago, my son, 11, got on the bus with one white long sock and one ankle length sock. My husband only noticed as he was getting on the bus. Later when I picked him up, he had that long sock bunched around his ankle so it was hear to tell....but Geeze....you would think he would care about that! lol

  4. Oh my...he is so cute and his eyes I think we'd all love to have....look at those lashes. His hat is just so cute and the socks...too funny. I use to leave my ex's socks when I got upset with him and he is colored blind so this happened with him every so often at a grown age...haha.

  14. If I had a hat like that hat, I'd want to wear it all day long. I'd probably even try to sleep in it.

    Love the socks. That's individuality and uniqueness.

    1. He sure likes that hat, Chuck. :) Let's hope he doesn't try to sleep in it (I don't put these things past him, you know). ;)

    1. Aaaack, does he look older? I'm not even going to go back and look again. He's been getting way too big too fast lately. I like having a little one around again. :)

    1. He told me on the drive home this afternoon that it makes him feel like a scientist.

      I think he's confused, but I didn't correct him because I'm not sure what he meant. Maybe he did mean scientist for all I know. lol

  28. OMG this kid is adorable...look at those lashes!!!wow...Well he can wear a hat for sure! and he did an excellent job dressing himself...for some reason in my house the only person who wears matching socks is my hubs...for the rest of us, there's got to be a sock monster eating 1 of the socks, so I try to match then by color and at least we will be coordinated! Hugs, my friend, Lizy

    1. Thanks, Lizy. He didn't even match colors. Ah well, I doubt anyone noticed, and if they did I'm guessing they didn't care (I hope, lol)> :)

  32. He could probably care less about matching socks. My father-in=law owns a hat store, so this might have been a welcome project.

  33. What a handsome young gentleman he is with his duded hat! But Rosey let me tell you something my 14 yr. old granddaughter told me when I said to her why are you wearing two different socks? That's in NaNee she says! I can't wear the same! I'd be an outcast! OH HEAVEN FORBID! And I handed her a very full bag (of my dust rags), which are all single socks, and told her to have at it! Her face lit up like it was Christmas! bwahahahahahahahahaha So, your little man is in fashion!!!

  48. He looks awfully cute. If my husband had his way, Elliott would only have two different styles of socks, long white ones for winter, and short white ones for summer. :) As it stands, Elliott is usually the sock matching helper, so he usually does a good job of matching socks. As long as I can convince him to put on clean socks in the morning, it's a win. :)

    1. He's not trendy yet, so it wasn't a 'cool' thing but he did do it on purpose. He said he was in a hurry. I guess it was faster to raid the sock basket than go to his room and get a matched pair. Silly boy. :)

  50. Boys! Lol! But he's looking cute and who knows it might put him as a trendsetter :P
