embroidered cuteness.

Guess what I embroidered on?
Luther's request was of course, 
"Thomas the train!"
It's not quite the actual Thomas, but he believes this is it. :)

ルーサー君のリクエストにこたえて、刺繍をしました。
さて、何に刺繍したでしょう？

Then, he continued with what he wants:
"And bus, and um um um pirate boat."

「何がいい？」と聞くと、やっぱり「トーマス。」
トーマスにはほど遠くなってしまったけど、これでいいかな？
そして、
「バスとぉ、かいぞくせんとぉ。」と乗り物が続くので、

最後に、彼が本の中から選んだ一番のお気に入りは、

「ピッピちゃん。」

もう3歳だし、一応男の子だし、「ねぇ、モンキーがかわいいよ。」とか「ペンギンもかっこいいかも。」と交渉してみたけど、「やだ！ピッピちゃん！！！」ってがんばるし、夫までもが「本人の好きなのにしてやれよ。」みたいな事を言ってくるので、かわいい『ピッピちゃん』に決まり。

Then, this chick.  I tried to convince him to go with a monkey, penguin or something more boy-ish, not baby-ish, but he insisted he only wants this.  And, from behind the couch, my husband interrupted, and said "Mu, just do what he wants.  This is his, not yours."  Ha, I am the one making this happen.  Don't forget it!, but maybe he is right, Oh-kay; so, Luther gets a lovely chick on his undie.  

Yes, I embroidered on underwear.  

何に刺繍したのかはね、パンツです。

ルーサー君大喜びで、毎日お風呂のあとに見せにきてくれるんです。パンツに刺繍させてもらえるのも、こうして写真を撮らせてもらえるのも、もうじき終わっちゃうんだろうな。

Luther loves them so much.  Every day, after his bath, he comes to the kitchen and tells me which one he is wearing.  He makes me so happy!  At the same time, knowing that he is growing out of this cuteness into real boy stuff, which makes me feel a bit of sadness.  Luther, thank you for letting me do cute things with your undies.
