For the past few days at dinner, I’ve been sitting next to Lauren. She eats her dinner and then when she is done, she stands up in her highchair, leans over and puts her dirty hands all over my shoulder. It gets my shirt all dirty. I was making a comment about it tonight when Maile piped up that she thought she could make me something to help.

(At summer camp Maile has been spending a lot of time in the fashion studio making pillows, backpacks and dresses. They’ve taught her how to sew a bit and how buttons work, etc.)

After dinner, Mommy and Maile disappeared into the bedroom for a bit and when they returned, Maile had a new fashion invention to show me!

They cut up an old shirt to cover one of my shoulders and then they sewed a button in the sleeve so I could close it around my arm. Genius!

Here’s Maile explaining the specifics…

And as Maile says in the video, if you have a good name for her invention let us know and you’ll get some sort of prize that allows you to sit wherever you want (that part wasn’t immediately clear 😉
