Luckily,the Sketchbook shorts that I altered into trousers 12 months ago still fit around the waist and hips. They were just way too short!
So I lengthened them by a good 6 inches and made him...
Two denim pairs for play.
And a very smart black pair for party!
How I love this boy(young man)!
He was a much longed for baby after many devastating losses. A blissful pregnancy followed by a long and difficult labour.
Born with an Apgar of 4,blue and floppy,I thought he had broke my heart before he could fill it.
I was so wrong.
He is loving and kind,wise far beyond his tender 13+ years.
I love watching him become the man I always hoped he would be,and the adult I have never managed to be.
Son&Heir....Beamish Boy.....Hornblower......Mr H....
I am honoured to have you in my life.
He really is becoming a fine young man. My eldest, also 13, has shot up about 3 inches in a few weeks, I haven't braved sewing trousers, though yours look great. The recent request was for a jacket like 'Indiana Jones' so I better finish that.
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous,an Indiana Jones jacket! My boy is army mad,and I finally let him go paint balling yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHe had a blast and came home covered in round bruises!
Pants are easy peasy Angela!
Thanks x N
Ah Nicole, you made me tear up with your love and affection for wonderful Mr H.! He's lucky to have you for a mother :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Susanne,he was away for the weekend and I was thinking about him!
ReplyDeleteI suppose it won't be long and he will be gone.....hopefully he will still come back sometimes.
Oh Nicole...you made me teary too! He always sounds like such a great guy, it is lovely to hear more of his background. He is lucky to have such a great family to grow up in too.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, you are a machine...8 pairs of trousers!!!!!
