Giant Shirt

Wm is a very disgruntled boy.  He has been signed up for swim lessons.  There is no escape.  He WILL learn how to swim!!  His first lesson is April 6 (indoors!) I was walking him to school today and he was all, "I don't want to go on vacation anymore."  When I asked why not he said it was because he didn't want to take swim lessons. I told him swim lessons were in the works no matter what and he better resign himself to learning to swim.  He huffed and puffed all the way to school.

He has also been signed up for baseball.  He is quasi-excited about this.  Because of how birthdays fall, he can't be on the same team as his BFF (if you were born after April 30, you're still in the 5-6 tee ball league instead of the 6-7 pitch league).  He starts that in late April. Wm goes, "TWO activities at the same time?!?!?!!?"  I think he's worried this will cut into his iPad time.

Poor Wm came home from school today with his Read-A-Thon tshirt.  All the kids are supposed to wear them tomorrow for a big assembly.  We ordered Wm a youth small, but it looked really big.  Wm tried it on and was all sad.  He goes, "I am too small for a small." I told him I thought the shirt was weirdly big for a youth small.  It was HUGE on him.

Way too big!
YOUTH small? Pffft.
Since Wm was all bummed about it, I said, "Wm, I seriously think this shirt would fit me."  He was still sad, so I put it on to make him laugh and it TOTALLY did fit me!  It actually fits me better than Wm.  Youth small, my fat butt.  But, Wm thought that was hilarious, took a picture of me in it, and said, "If my friends laugh at me tomorrow, I'll tell them it fit MY MOM!" So...win.  Wm is no longer feeling bad!
Picture by Wm!
Wm ruined our moment by then saying, "And you usually wear what...a grown up extra large?"
