James Toes

What is a mom to do? Last night while I was painting my toenails I had an unexpected request. Elijah was sitting next to me and watching intently. He told me that he didn't like the color I was using, but he liked red paint. "It is the color of James", he said (a friend of Thomas the Train, his FAVORITE!!). He then asked me to paint his toes "James Red". Ah, the dilemma. It was so cute that I couldn't say no - even though there's the issue with the boyness. Rich said it's okay this time, but please don't do it again and Auntie Laura looked at me and just shook her head. I guess I can't do it again- BUT it was so cute!
