I have let my children pick out their own clothes and only interfere if a belly or more body parts down south are showing(Some low rise are just too low). I try to let them have control over this and for the most part they do a great job.
Today as we are rushing to meet the bus, I mentioned to Kallie that her shorts were pink and her shirt was lavender. She replied, "yea I know, don't they look so cute" I replied you are cute and I thought it was so funny how sure and matter of fact she answered me- so I let it go and let her wear her outfit. When she got home, we were talking I noticed that one sleeve was cut off and the other was long... I have been working on a memory quilt that is made of my kids baby clothes and have been known to raid their closet looking for a coordinating fabric or a way to get rid of a shirt that I don't really like, and this is this case with her shirt she wore today!!
I only needed a couple pieces and didn't cut the whole shirt up. She must have saw it on in my room and wahla...Her outfit for today!! 
Here is a small portion of her sleeve!! She didn't even know it was missing!!

Beth I think that is soooo cute!! What a memory that will be to go along with your quilt you are making!! She is so funny. By the way the ZIT cream is working, but only on one side of my face. My other side is having a nervous breakout!!
That is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing it. I laughed right out loud. That is a great idea to do with their clothes!
I laughed so hard, I even had to read it aloud to Ira, who laughed with me. Those are what great memories are made of - especially where you will have a quilt to always remind you. luv it! nicky
