- This week I was perusing the clearance school supplies and we walked past the Halloween costumes. Dawson looked over and said "I will be a hot dog." Sure enough, there was a hot dog costume for kids. He has been talking nonstop about becoming a "hot dog dressed like a Dawson." He has also repeatedly told Mike and I "make sure to put ketchup and mustard on me."
- It is scary how much he has learned about driving/traffic signals. He will yell at me to "STOP" when I'm turning right on red. I have to explain to him that you are allowed to turn right on red. One day I was waiting to turn left at a green light and he was yelling at me to "go!" I had to explain about yielding to those going straight. I also had to explain about stopping at the white line at a red light, because he wants me to stop immediately when he sees the red light, even if I'm a hundred feet away from the intersection. I told Mike that he is planning for the day when he is going to get ahold of car keys and go for a joy ride. In his little brain he going to be driving any day now!
- Today I came up to give him a cuddle and a hug and he looked at me and said "I cut you." Then proceeded to pretend to cut off my ear. I really feel the love around here.
Today we took a wander around the McKinley museum. Carter and I went to a planetarium show, he was enthralled. I can't wait until everyone is 5 and we can go as a family.
