Beautiful Clothes

So the story goes that when Tammy's son, Benjamin, was young he hated wearing what he called beautiful clothes (dressy clothes to the rest of us). When he got to a certain age, he pronounced to his mother that he no longer wanted to wear beautiful clothes; he wanted to wear little boy clothes. Well, one day in preschool a little boy came dressed in an outfit his mother had picked for him, yes...beautiful clothes. Benjamin saw and, since he no longer had to wear beautiful clothes, decided to start the chant "______'s wearing beautiful clothes, _______'s wearing beautiful clothes." That poor kid was embarrassed in front of all his classmates!

Well, today Eli wore beautiful clothes to church. Someone from my parent's church gave him this sweet outfit and I knew he was about to outgrow it. I didn't want that to happen before he had a chance to wear it, so this morning I put on his first set of beautiful clothes :) He looked so sweet in them that we did another photo shoot (shocker, huh?) :)

So, so precious!
