J is totally lost in his imagination these days. He has recently started wrapping my scarves around his head so that he has really long hair like Rapunzel. He also likes me to tie a scarf around his waist so he can pretend it is his dress. He loves wearing my sparkly gold Tory Burch flats and telling me that he is a princess or a ballerina. It’s really really cute. So as his Mom, I of course love this image. It catches him at a point in time in his life that I want to remember – ignorant to gender stereotypes and just being himself – a boy who likes all thing girlie including dresses, long hair, sparkly shoes and princesses and not afraid to stand up for it.
