Default Really cool NSV
I have a black Adidas track suit top I sometimes wear when I go running/walking the dog. My 11 year old (and he's a skinny 11 year old!) has a black fleece he wears for school...

Yesterday, I was in such a hurry to get out the door with the dog, whilst it was still sunny, I put on my son's fleece, by accident - thinking it was my running top - and got as far as the door before one of the kids asked me why I was wearing Alex's school uniform! What a cool NSV! I was so excited - I knew I could now fit in any of my 16 year old's T shirts (he's skinny too), but not my 11 year old's!

It does feel great to fit in your kids clothes. Today I put on my daughters coat while I was pumping gas. It would never have fit before. Last night she gave me some of her size 5 jeans that were a little big on her. I couldn't believe they fit great and she had hardly wore them. She's 13 and almost as tall as me and has lost 27lbs. herself by eating healthier. I might need to raid her closet more often.
