A Random Conversation with My Son
Tonight, as I was tucking Eamon into bed, he said to me, "Mama, do you want me to be a kid forever?"
Me - "I do love having you as a little kid. But I want you to grow up too. I want to see what kind of Papa you're going to be."
Eamon - (shaking his head) "I don't want to be a Papa. I'm going to be a Ninja Turtle!"
Me - "Um.... OK!"
Eamon - (with brow wrinkled in thought) "But then I will need a long rope."
Truly, his thought process is amazing. Especially considering that we don't watch "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." Where in left field did that come from? And what he would need the rope for? Scaling walls? Can turtles even do that?
Oh, to live inside Eamon's head for a day.

Uhm, maybe he wants to be a rope-jumping Ninja Turtle?
When I was little, I wanted to be a puppy.
A rope? Hmmm. Amazing thought processes your kiddo has!
CRACKED ME UP! Yes, I had to yell that. Eams is a hoot. The minds of little boys...
(maybe it's for really long numchucks--which I won't even beging to pretend I know how to spell)
The TMNT can do ANYTHING!
I think I'd prefer for him to stay a little boy......
I love your conversations with Eamon!!
Hahahaha, I love the things that come out of their mouths!
