Ethan, along with myself, was getting very frustrated at the 2 1/2 year old who lives with us. Landon, who would constantly tell you he was "Katie", was only wanting to be referred to as "Katie".
Shawn would ask him: "Are you a boy?"
Landon: "No."
Shawn: "Are you a girl?"
Landon: "No! I Katie!"
Big brother Ethan had had enough since I was telling him to play along with this imagination stuff to let Landon be a kid. Finally, he broke out with a sad voice, "Can I call Katie Landon?"
A friend from church thought it would be cute to get her daughter and Ethan's picture together since they had matching outfits from Children's Place. (About the only fun children store around these parts!) So, as you can tell, Ethan is not really into girls - yet! He endured. She loved it....I should treasure these few moments...pretty soon it won't be this easy to keep him away!
I was busy at the piano and Ethan was hammering me with millions of questions while he was looking at a book. He was, of course, getting on my nerves. But, of course, he kept asking away. I kept answering animal questions until finally he had me stumped.
Ethan: "Mommy, do deer hurt you?"
Me: "No. They run away."
Ethan: "How did Noah get them on the Ark?"
Me: ...I think I finally came up with an answer!...
