Do you have any clothing gifts from children that you normally would never have bought, let alone wear?

One I have that I find particularly amusing is a sort of fancy t-shirt, white with tiny little black scottish terriers sprinkled all over it. Normally, there's no way I would ever consider wearing this shirt but, since it was my daughter who gave it to me one birthday past, I find myself wearing it quite frequently, and chuckling to myself ever time I do.

The funny thing is, if my wife had bought it for me (she actually did do the buying but it was my daughter who picked it out), there's no way in hell she would have ever gotten me to wear the thing. Amazing the influences children have on their parents. :)

no clothes..but when my kids were younger I was never without a spare coffee mug or keychain.

I drove to work today with a Mickey Mouse (missing one arm) keychain and am at this moment drinking out of a "DAD" coffee mug.
