the leaf in the tub

Jonah's a pretty tough little guy, but tonight, not so much.  He was playing in the tub when he noticed a tiny piece of leaf that was floating around.  He started screaming and pushing himself away from it.  Seriously, the think was like the size of my pinky nail.  Tears were steaming down his face as the leaf got close to him.  I was laughing so hard and called Adam in.  Adam scooped it out and tossed it in the sink.  At this point Jonah was too upset to finish his bath.  As soon as I got him out and picked him up, he looked in the sink to get another look at that leaf.  Ha!  I would have loved to know what was going on in that adorable little head of his!  Was he scared or did he just not want to get dirty again?  We'll never know.

the red

Tobey: "the red means it is going to destroy the world. "  well, that's just awesome, Tobes.

beetle

We went to yogli mogli at Suwanee town center for dessert tonight, and Tobey pointed out a red Volkswagen beetle as we parked.  He said it was a small car so I told him it was called a "bug".  He then corrected me by saying, "no, mom, that's a beetle."  Ummm, I have no clue how he knew that!

eggs

He was too excited to wait until after nap time to dye eggs.  I guess I can't blame him.

good friday

Good Friday fasting rules according to Tobey: if you are old and pregnant, like you mommy, then you can eat a lot.  If you are a kid or baby, you can eat a lot.  If you are an old man, you can't eat a lot.

I think that's a pretty good explanation for a four year old.

twenty trucks

These boys LOVE their Twenty Trucks video that Tobey got as a gift from aunt koko and uncle David last year. They watch it every morning after Tobey earns screen time for using the potty.  Jonah didn't even want breakfast today because he was so excited to watch. I think I have the whole thing memorized.
