every child deserves the chance to look like a clown
yet another friend is having a baby, and the baby shower that goes with it. because she has an older child, she already has most of the necessary paraphernalia, so she instructed everyone that she wanted only onesies.
hurrah! an excuse to get elbow-deep in dye, thought i.
i took a little bit of license; these aren't all onesies. and they're not all newborn sizes, because i wanted her daughter to spend most of her childhood in tie-dye. some of the items are more successful than others; some of them will make my friend sigh in relief when her daughter outgrows them at last.
- x-ray suit. this one, in light and dark blue, reminds me of an x-ray of someone's rib cage.
- halloween costume. "what are you dressed as?" "a walking bruise."
- hippie chick. who doesn't love a rainbow spiral?
- sharpie. i should have taken some permanent markers or something and colored in some of that white space. but i didn't. look, it's going to be worn by a three-month-old. cut me some slack.
- lava my life. i had to work orange in there somewhere...
- relatively subdued, all things considered. this is a larger t-shirt for my friend's three-year-old son, so he won't feel left out of the fun. since i had such fun, after all, so should everyone else.
