Last night, I took Ben to one of these seasonal Halloween stores where I bought him a knight costume for trick-or-treating this year.Ben also has a knight-themed birthday party coming up on Saturday, so, I reasoned, he can get another wear out of the costume during the party.
The thing is, he hasn't taken the costume off since we opened it last night. And while it's funny to watch the neighbors' expressions when they see a 4-year-old knight with us as we walk Zach & Phoebe to school, there's no way this costume stays in one piece until Halloween unless we start limiting the amount of time he can wear it between now and then.
On the plus side, there have been no dragon sightings on our block since Sir Knight Benjamin began patrolling.

I thought about making the title of this post "Knight of the Living Ben", but I wasn't sure if the George Romero reference quite worked.
Clever, but you are right: the reference wouldn't have quite worked. Happy Birthday, Ben!
