Today I took Ben to get his 4 year pictures done. We drove to Bixby's Washington Irving Park to meet the photographer. We were early so I walked Ben over to see the World Trade Center Memorial they have in the park. I tried to explain what the steel beam was and why it was in the park. He asked a lot of questions and I tried to answer them in a way that a 4 year old would understand. Here is a picture of the memorial:
We all know how Ben doesn't like to wear pants. So when I put him in his new cool duds for his pictures he had a lot to say about it. He complained that the pants were too tight (which they weren't), and he said the shoes fit funny (which they didn't). He looked so handsome. I told him he looked like a rock-star. He said he didn't. So I told him "You know that some kids don't even have shoes or pants. You should be grateful for what you have and stop complaining". Man I sounded like a mom. Heehee!
You tell me is this cute or what?!?!?
He's rockin' the black Converse High-tops, distressed jeans, and black graphic shirt! He got over the clothing issue and took some awesome pictures. I can't wait to see them next week. The photographer was so patient with Ben and basically just played with him the whole shoot. We used Macs Photography in Bixby. I highly recommend them!
