This afternoon, JediBoy was dressing up again. Mom, aren’t you going to take my picture? How could I not?
He posed himself, especially on that last one. He insisted I take about 12 shots of the death pose, some full body and some close up. I’m only subjecting you to the one.
I remarked later in that oh-so-casual but PLEASE-agree-with-me way that he could use these pieces to dress as a knight for Halloween. (Surely you’re all familiar with the Thoth affair, when I begged him to be a TP mummy and he wanted to be the Ibis-headed god? He was three.)
I don’t think I’m going to be able to do anything hugely new and elaborate for this Halloween, especially if we bring baby home in October.
Thank Thoth, he agreed! But then he said: We’ll need to buy some leather. I need to make THESE shoes.
This is a detail from his favorite book of King Arthur legends, and he is convinced that this is the only acceptable knight footwear. Help me, oh internets! I am not going to MAKE the shoes (though my grandfather would have) - so I can make felt or fabric shoe covers (think spats) or I can buy some shoes that are a good approximation. Resources? Ideas?
