Jack Be Nimble

Jackson's class had been working on nursery rhymes at school and were going to put on a special nursery rhyme demonstration at the school. Jackson chose Jack Be Nimble so we set to work on the costume. I found him some suspenders at D.I. and the coolest candle holder. The hat was not so easy. I thought I would just have him were a straw hat we picked up on our cruise but Jackson had something very specific in mind. He was picturing a hat that was in a book his teacher had been reading to them at school. I did not understand his explanation of the hat and he stared crying....I mean this hat was a big deal. Finally I took him to the computer to look online and he pointed out the had he had in mind. So we made it. He picked out the material and I had a friend sew it for me. (I have no sewing machine!) So when it comes time to perform they are right on time and we are 1 minute late and Jackson volunteers to go first. Well we had his hat and candle. So we made him re due it after handing him his hat and candle holder.
