But when you stand humbled by the ocean's door, Then you'll understand just who I am

This camper's shirt just made me smile. I smiled because he wore it so confidently, unconcerned about the fact he had sailor kittens on his shirt. I feel like this is one of the outfits (because it has matching shorts) that when he looks back in 10 years, he'll yell at his mom for letting him wear it. :)
This outfit made me think of outfits I had when I was younger and didn't think about if it looked good or if it was "cool", or whatever. That purple sweatsuit with the stars and rainbows haunts my dreams today, but I loved it. One of my co-workers told me about a time when his mom let him wear a power ranger costume to school on a day that was most certainly not halloween. I love kids. I love their freedom to be who they are, and not be concerned with who you think they should be.
