It's (almost) always funny to hear Mike re-creating tones of voice he has heard from us. Today he was playing in the kitchen with his trains, and his own personal cat Nicky Jr came to watch him. Using a very calm and serious Voice of Sweet Reason he began to explain, "Nicky, I am building a downtown, and you need to keep your tail off the tracks, because it not safe."
I think Mike will be glad to go back to school on Monday, because even with his new Christmas loot to play with, he's getting a little bored. Today he even helped me do my book inventory for a while, handing me the books where I was switching shelves. Naturally I was charmed to pieces. I'm easy that way.
We watched a DVD together before bedtime, and it was possibly one of the most ghastly travesties I've had inflicted on me in a while. It was called Whispers, about a baby elephant, and the Disney Corp should be hanging its head in shame. Basically someone took a whole lot of footage of elephants, cranked out a plot-by-number, wrote some stupid cutesy dialog and then cut and pasted the film clips into a story-like form. Michael loved it. He has watched it 4 or 5 times since we got it Friday. *sigh*
