Mommy, "I'm ready to go!"

I have found that as a mother I have eaten my words many times. Before I had children (and even when I had only one or two boys) I would say "I'd never let my child go out in public like that!" But now with 4 boys and one on the way, I have really relaxed on this issue.
The other day. I was busily getting things done around the house while all the boys were at school except for McKay. I told him to hurry and get ready because we were going to go the store in just a minute. He was already dressed, but needed to get his shoes on still.
He went back to his room for a few minutes and then came out wearing something completely different. McKay was so proud of himself and said, "Mommy, I'm ready to go!" He was wearing pajama shorts, which he refers to as his basketball shorts, an undershirt, and his lovely red Santa socks. Oh, and look and those adorable Thomas the train shoes put on the wrong feet. The shoes are yet another item that I have had to eat my words on. I have always been completely against character clothing and shoes.
Well, all I can say is that it must be true about what they say about the younger siblings in the family. They get away with things (and get things) that their older siblings never could. The funny thing is, I think McKay looks rather cute in his outfit.
