This is our first matching t-shirt which includes one for Joram as well. Yay! Apart from being my personal OCD, (hee hee...) the matching clothes have a very useful and practical function: it helps strangers to recognise at a glance that we are part of the same family.
You have no idea how many times passers-by have helped us locate our missing child/children in record time under crowded conditions at a shopping mall or while traveling via public transport. A couple of times, kind people had also warned us when one of them was about to do something potentially dangerous without needing to ask us if he/she was our kid. It is especially helpful when I bring the kids out alone. There is only so much a pair of eyes and two hands can do.
After the children are all grown, Joshua and I can go back to wearing couple tees. After all, which teenager (or tween for that matter) wants to wear the same thing as his/her parents? O_o
