"Mom..." Tyler began this evening (as he begins every new idea or question he says to me, whether we've been chatting together for 10 minutes or just started talking), "why don't you have any toys in your room?""
"Toys?" I asked. "Like cars & Barbies and things like that?"
"Yeah... toys!" he said, like of course that's what he meant.
"Well, no, Mommy doesn't really play with toys. Most grown-ups don't," I answered.
"Oh.... (thinking) when I'm a grown-up I'll have lots of toys in my room. And I'm going to be a grandpa," he finished.
"You want to be a grandpa when you grow up?" I asked.
"Yes, a grandpa," he said.
"Why do you want to be a grandpa?" I questioned.
"Because I want to," he said adamantly.
Well of course that explain everything.
That's great! I had a ton of material when Caden was Ty's age. I just love the way they think and how it comes out!
