For this year's Halloween costume Thomas asked me to make a Yoshi costume (reference a series of Nintendo games) mixed with a pokemon named Aipom. He wanted a Yoshi body and an Aipom tail. Since his every wish is my command, this is what he got:
Here is the back, so you can see the saddle and spikes on his head.
Not too surprisingly, no one at Thomas's school had any idea of what he was. (His Halloween party was yesterday and featured a terrifying performance by the Flint Youth Theatre that caused him to walk out halfway through [and later that night caused him to be too scared to go into his dark room to get in bed], a meal at subway which he "didn't like much", a "blizzard" at Dairy Queen which was "all right" and then a game of bowling at a local bowling alley which was "not so great". Getting not much praise but many confused stares doesn't seem to have turned Thomas off his costume, since he said he wants to wear it continuously until, eventually, he turns into a Yaipom.

Who cares what a Yoshpom is! He looks great -and what a dedicated and creative Mom he has.
