A new day has come
And this new day is fine.
You want to look fab
Playing in the sunshine.
Throw open your closet,
Pick a shirt out with care.
Hawaiian print? Awesome.
That's the first thing you'll wear.
You don't want to look sloppy,
Need to dress it up right.
Ah, perfect: Easter's sweater,
Best of all, it's a bit tight.
No need to be stuffy--
Let 'em know you're alive.
B-ball shorts, nothin' better
To send out the "I'm hip" vibe.
Don't forget some brown church socks
'Neath those sweet light-up pumps.
"C'mon, mom, let's get started--
Watch me do some triple-jumps!"
Who cares if it matches,
No matter the hue,
Because you know, inside,
"I look good, yes I do!"

What. You are the CUTEST and best mom to have written a poem about Carson's new and developing fashion sense. I truly love it when I see children who have clearly dressed themselves! It's the best! Keep rockin, Carson!
carson's adorable. and you're amazing. 'nuff said.
*sitting here in awe at your poem writing skills*
hope he wears something as clever on our bus ride tomorrow...
Great poem! That is so funny that he dresses himself. My 3 year old COMPLETELY leaves his wardrobe up to me, so I have my boys matching most of the time. I am TRULY impressed with Carson's fashion sense, and independence to dress himself. What a stud!
Yes, this is the one thing I decided to allow...kids dressing themselves .... I'm picking my battles.
I do though however insist on appropriate season attire. No long sleeve shirts with pants in 110 degree weather. That is health issue, right?
EASY on your adorable poem. wow. i can't wait until cole starts pulling stunts like this :)
Too bad we don't live closer because Natalie got a haircut today as well and with your two kids they could set some serious trends! Simply hilarious, and clever, and winsome, and heart-warming and...Brittney, I'm so glad you have a blog.
