JoyBoy tells me occasionally that he wants to marry
me. Sometimes he gets in a huff when daddy explains that he is married to me
and that he is our baby. "No! I want to marry mama!"
One
afternoon in November, we were sitting on the couch when he told me again that he
wants to marry me. We'd come from the library an hour or so before and
had a pile of borrowed books on the table.
At
the library, I found a book that looked intriguing called,
"Mommy...I'm mad at you!" I found it in the pile and started to read it to
Kaemon Ze.
Lo and behold...the reason the cute-as-can-be little rabbit boy was
ultimately mad at his mom was because she said she won't marry
him...not even when he gets older.
Kaemon Ze loved this book and asked me to read it again. Then, he reenacted
the book, over and over. It was so cool!
When JoyBoy reenacted the book, he even had me put crackers out...just like the book. :)
(I said, "Do I sleep in late?" He said, "No...")
(It's true, I'm always up before he wakes up.)
(I said, "Does mama watch t.v.?" "He said, "No...")
(It's true, we don't watch television.)
(I said, "Does mama yell?" "He said, "No...")
(It's true; I'm adverse to yelling.)
(I said, "Do I tell you to hurry up?" "He said, "Sometimes...")
(It's true.)
(I said, "Who does the laundry?" "He said, "Daddy.")
(What can I say? I'm a lucky girl!)
The REAL reason he's so mad at mommy!
Kaemon Ze loved the part in his reenactment where I pulled him to me after he came back. :)
