There is only ONE occasion in your little boy’s life that you get to put him in a dress, and that is on his Baptism day.
That’s not to say he’ll never wear a dress again. But those other times will be his own choice.
Cooper was pretty good about it (he wore his Uncle Ross’s christening gown)…
… but something tells me he doesn’t want to wear any more dresses.
Little Boys, take heart — if you put on a Baptism gown, you get lots of gifts!
You may even get a cool hat like Cooper got from his Great Aunt Tara.
He was so excited, he wanted to try it on right away. And since he was so good at church while getting the water sprinkled over his head, we let him wear it.
Little Boys, if you wear a gown like Cooper did, you may also get a quilt with a turtle on it, sewn by the very thoughtful ladies at Church. As you surely know, Jesus loved turtles. He had a pet one named Skipperdee.
And your older cousin will come over and help you celebrate the fact that you wore a gown by making silly faces and performing feats of acrobatics. Cooper’s cousin is John Mac. Isn’t he cute??
So you see, Little Boys? Wearing a dress isn’t so bad. High heels, however, are a different story.
Welcome to the flock, Cooper! Your Mamasissy loves you and thinks you are skinny.
Love,
