Never worried...
...but slightly concerned about my middle son, Noah. Noah is 3, and by all accounts is exhibiting typical middle-child qualities. He's sweet...but in my wife's words, he's "mean as fire!"
Recently Noah has been trying to get in touch with his feminine side. The other day at Rainbow School his class earned pennies for a variety of tasks and by exhibiting good behavior. The kids could then use these pennies to buy various "junk" that parents had brought up to the school for this activity. So what did Noah buy???
A pair of girls shoes and a purse!!!
I don't know if I'm spelling this correctly....but in the words of Mel Brooks: "OY VAY!!!"
Not satisfied with merely accessorizing in a feminine way, Noah has also developed an interest in lipstick. No tube of lipstick is safe if left within his reach. I've attached just a small exhibit of his work. Granted, I've had to censor this picture...as Noah chose to apply the lipstick while in the nude.
Fortunately this wasn't expensive lipstick.

Never worry, but concern is good.
Cameron was always jealous that Megan got to dress up in the princess costume dresses that we had. He comes running down the hall one day (about Noah's age) crying, "I want to be a princess, I want to be a princess!"
He's 13 now and is embarassed when we bring that one up!
Btw, those are good photos to put aside for, let's say 15-20 years until graduation slideshows and wedding albums...
Like father like son.....
He's heard one too many comments about "man-crushes".
My perfect graduation slide for my now-8-year-old son involves red underwear, a white ballet tutu, a straw hat with a ribbon and play high heels, with painted toe nails.
Sarah, nice pic of the boy. We've got one of motorcycle helmet, barechested, skinny, 11 year old, with shorts pulled-up geek style, wearing boxing gloves. He has it as his background on his PSP. The weird thing is, he likes it!
Just think of it as future ammunition!
Maybe you should consider taking him out of the "Rainbow" School? Just a thought.
