Here is a photo of Ben during his physical therapy session this morning wearing a traditional jinbei that was a kind gift from our friend Miss Behaving all the way from Japan! He loves the outfit (so do we!), and we think he looks very sharp. Thank you, Miss Behaving!

Oh my goodness!!! So cute!! I love it! Does he like playing the drum. It warms my heart to see him standing there. : )

Ben likes playing the drum strictly when he’s in the mood (wasn’t in the mood this morning!) He’s not able to stand on his own yet – he is using the couch for support, and our physical therapist is right there to catch him when he pitches forward!

Wow, I love the outfit, that’s awesome. Ben looks like such a big boy standing up
Looks like he got a haircut too.

Fabulous outfit! He’s looks so grown up. It’s so wonderful to see him standing….but one thing leads to another….walking and then running….oh boy! He’s doing great…it won’t be long before he’s standing on his own!

Oh wow!! a picture, I am SO glad you like it.
With the outfit and the drum this could be the beginning of something big…didn’t you post a way back about liking the japanese Taiko Drummers??
Thanks for the snap.

Oh, my. He looks adorable. Love the little feet. Sean skipped right over walking and starting running. Look out!

I love the outfit. And that you man of yours is a perfect. I have a daughter that is missing fingers on her left hand and would love to share some of the tricks we have learned.

Miss Behaving: Yes, we LOVED the Japanese drummers!
Ben’s outfit goes perfectly with drums now that you mention it!
Sandi: More about the haircut in my next post!
Tricia: Welcome! We are always happy to learn new tricks…

Parker loves, loves, loves drums. The one Ben is playing looks so unique. May I ask where you got it?

Hi Tammy, I got it on sale at the Whittaker Center in Harrisburg, PA about a year ago. It was left over from an exhibit they had there – I believe it was made in Malaysia.
