My sunroom has cream colored loveseat and nubby oatmeal colored carpet. It is floor to ceiling windows that even on the cloudiest day is filled with light.
It is the one room I love to snuggle up in and read or pray.
My bright, lovely, feminine retreat has lately been taken over by scene like this...
Sponsored by my almost 4 year old son.
Hey little man, who is this guy?
He is Doctor No-Legs...he is evil. He is a baaaad guy
As I sit on the floor next to my sweet angel baby he proceeds to weave the following tale...
Dr. No-Legs catches people and chops off their heads
Then he stacks them into...what are those thing called? You know those Indian things...those poles.
You mean totem poles? You are telling my that he makes totem poles out of heads?
Yeah totem poles!
This is the good guy, he is a hero, he is from the space patrol.
How do you know he works for space control?
Mama, look at his jacket, you see those letters? Those say 'space patrol'...my big brother told me.
What is in his hand?
A gun...a BIG gun
He isn't gonna shoot anyone with it is he?
Only bad guys.
His friends are getting the bad guy with him. That's what good guy do mama, they get bad guys!
What are they gonna do with him after they capture him?
They're going to leave him.
Won't the bad guy get away and go do bad stuff again?
Oh mama just wait and see!
Look! He's gonna get eaten by an alligator AND a shark! Isn't that cool?
Ummmm...I guess.
I like it when the bad guy get eaten by stuff.
You do?
Yep...or when they get runned over by big trucks. Or when they get smashed by dinosaurs!
And what are the good guys doing while the bad guy is getting eaten, do they feel bad for the bad guy cause he's getting eaten?
No mama...they are singing!
Really? What are they singing?
They are singing Jingle Bells.
Why Jingle Bells?
They like to.
OK.
******
This is where the difference can so starkly be seen between boys and girls. My sweet daughter would have had the good guys talk the bad guy to death as they tried to change him. Not the boy...
He just throws him to the alligator AND the shark!
No mercy...no prisoners!
All Boy!
