After making Elliot a Hiro costume sweatshirt recently, I figured I’d be out of the costume making business for a little while, at least until the fall. Elliot must have had other plans because he randomly asked for a Prince Charming costume. All the talk about princess costumes at his preschool must have triggered his read more »

Typically when one boy wants something, the other follows suit.
