Security Detail

For me the last week of school seemed to fly by...but the boys thought it would never end.  To make the last week of school fun for the kids, Britton's teacher had a different theme for each day where the students could dress according to the theme.  One day was "crazy hair day", one was "sports day", and one day was "spy day.  Britton is usually shy, reserved and very self conscious - and typically will NOT participate when the class or school has a day where they can dress different.  So, it SHOCKED me when he actually planned each night what he was going to wear the next day to go along with his classroom theme.  It was so fun to watch him come up with each part of his costume and plan it out detail by detail.

For "spy day" he borrowed Jason's sunglasses, put on his own suit coat with white shirt, and thought he was pretty inconspicuous and I just smiled the whole time knowing he was completely confident in what he was wearing.

That evening I caught him and Gavin out side sword fighting in their "spy gear".  Jason was having scouts at our house and they were pretending to "spy" on the scouts as they came and be their body guards.  I asked if they were spies with swords - which we all laughed about and then they decided they were security guards instead.
