How A White Suite Can Teach A Young Boy Responsibility

When most people think of a First Communion, they picture a young girl wearing a fancy white dress accompanied with a veil for her hair. However, a Communion is also a special moment for a young boy. My son, Owen, will be making his First Communion and he is extremely excited once he heard that he had the choice to wear an all white suit. As a mother to a little boy that always manages to somehow get a stain here, there and everywhere, I did hesitate at the thought of this. However, how many opportunities is he going to get?

So I talked with Owen, about how he is to treat an all white suit and what an important opportunity this is to show some responsibility. You see, my son has also mentioned how much he wants a dog. This allowed me the perfect opportunity to help make him realize just how big of a responsibility a dog can be. Therefore, I told him that an all white suit (like a dog) is something that is very special and will require much care. If Owen can use his judgment to treat this particular suit with the best of care (as a person would that is caring for a pet), then we can discuss getting a dog after his Communion.

Obviously, Owen was now more determined than ever to find a white suit and to prove to me just how good he could treat the suit. So we searched stores and could not find anything without it being ridiculously expensive. Next, Owen and I decided to look online. That is when we came across, My Special Place.com.

We looked under the title of Boy’s Suits and found the David Boy’s White Suit. It is just what Owen and I were looking for! It is an all white, five-piece, machine washable, suit! Not to mention I could not beat the affordable price! This suit is absolutely perfect!

After I saw this suit, I knew Owen would look dashingly handsome and this was the suit for us! Not to mention, knowing how determined of a boy Owen can be, I have a strong feeling that he is going to prove me wrong! I have a feeling that Owen will be a new proud owner of a dog within the next few weeks! Little does he know, that my husband and I are planning on getting him a puppy as a Communion present anyways!

A Communion Suit Versatile Enough for a Tight Budget

I have a son who will be making his first communion very soon. I happened to be browsing your website when I saw a John Boy’s Charcoal Grey Suit. I knew that this was the suit I wanted to buy for my son, Noah. In our tough and sometimes unexpected economic times, I wanted to get Noah a suit that he would be able to wear on multiple occasions without breaking the bank. In the words of my father, he would refer to this situation as “more bang for the buck!”

Also, as a mother who knows what kind of messes her son can get into, I was very nervous at the idea of purchasing a white suit (although I do adore the look)! However, I knew that I did not want your typical black or navy blue suit either. So I was hoping to find a suit that was a little bit different in color but at the same time, could still be seen as classic and traditional. The John Boy’s Charcoal Grey suit was exactly what I wanted!

This particular suit was a mother’s dream because it was full of benefits! First of all, it was extremely affordable! Since my husband and I (like many other families) are on a tight budget right now, we have to factor in the cost of such items that we normally do not expect to buy.

Second, upon reading the description of the suit, I thought it was very informative about how versatile this suit is! I love the fact that just because a person purchases a five-piece suit, it does not mean they are required to wear all the items together every single time. Lastly, and the absolute number one reason to purchase the suit (and the only reason a mother could truly appreciate), is this suit is machine washable!

Therefore, I just wanted to say how happy I was that I came across this website! The information on all of the products was very helpful in guiding me to pick the right communion suit for Noah’s big day!

A Boy’s Suit: When to buy

I am in such a quandary and I am hoping that someone can put my over-planning mind at ease. My son, Ethan, is making his Confirmation this April and I need to buy him a suit to wear.

I started looking this past week for a boy’s suit that he can wear this upcoming April and I am finding myself in a dilemma of what size to buy. I know that most parents who purchase an outfit a few months in advance have some concerns as to whether it will fit or not when the special day arrives. But my story with Ethan becomes a little more complicated – he was recently diagnosed with Crohn’s disease.

For the past year, Ethan has been complaining of various stomach ailments and as a result started losing weight, but we did not know why. After months of specialists, we finally found an answer why – Crohn’s disease. Although there is no cure for this disease, it can be controlled through certain medications and diet. For the past few months, we have adjusted Ethan’s diet and he has been on the new medications, which are showing promising results. He is feeling better, looking stronger and has even gained back some of his original weight, which is a side effect of his medications. I am very thankful that my prayers were answered and he is on the road to recovery. The doctors have said that he should get back to the weight that he used to be, it would only be a matter of time.

Thus, here is the question that I keep asking myself. Do I purchase the suit now and hope it fits later (after he gains the weight) or do I wait until the last minute and buy one a few weeks before (and take the chance that they will have his size)?

I am also hoping to get at least a few more uses out of this suit. My sister, Sherry is getting married a month later in May and I would like to see him wear the suit again to her wedding. I know I should wait but I am hoping to save some money. What to do, what to do?
