I had trousers that managed to still be in great condition for the boy to wear too (nothing too girly). Many of his long pants have been cut into shorts as they were still ok apart from gaping holes in the knees!!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00152241012333999172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31191208.post-54592078633305414322010-08-20T06:41:09.456+10:002010-08-20T06:41:09.456+10:00Your third sentence.
