Ten Costumes for under $1

In a few weeks Lucas is going to a cowboy themed birthday party so I picked up a red bandanna for him to wear at the party. He was getting a little bored and there was still about an hour before bed so I saw the bandanna sitting on a shelf so I asked him "Do you want to be a cowboy?" He excitedly said "yes! Cowboy mama!" From there the "do you want to be" game was born. Lucas would happily run back and forth through the house until I came up with the next dress up idea.
Do you want to be a pirate?
Do you want to be a blind man?

Do you want to be a bank robber?
Do you want to be a bunny rabbit?
Do you want to be a super hero?
Do you want to be a gangster?
Do you want to be a Shepherd?

Do you want to be a man with a broken arm?

Do you want to be an animal with a tail?
It was time for bedtime before we could come up with anymore costume ideas. Lucas scooped up the bandanna under one arm and his baby under the other and headed off to bed. When I laid him down and covered him up with his blanket he sat up and neatly spread the bandanna out over his blanket and told me goodnight.

I don't know why, but Lucas spreading the bandana neatly out over his blanket makes me want to cry. What a sweet lamb.
