This afternoon I went with Alex to spend the Macy's gift certificates that he had received as Chritmas and birthday presents this year. This was a much needed trip to replace his theatre climbing-ladders-running-wire work clothes with scholarly-man-about campus clothes. When he was little, I thought I had laid the fashion groundwork by dressing him in snappy outfits-many with matching hats and suspenders but today I discovered a horrible fact. Alex hates clothes shopping! What?! No child of mine should ever say such a thing! This called for serious intervention. Luckily, Paige met us at the Mall for support and we guided him around the sale racks. Note: Back to school shopping bargains are plentiful when looking for a Florida wardrobe - shorts and summer shirts! Paige and I channeled our inner Stacy and Clinton and Alex successfully chose some great clothes.
Mission accomplished!
