Opening night is tonight. Thank goodness. I'm so fried.
Ethan's personality, his humor, his sensitivity and reason are bursting at the seams. It's amazing to observe his development on a day-to-day basis.
Scene: Yesterday. In the car, on the way to school.
ETHAN: Mommy! It's an emergency.
ME: What is?
ETHAN: LOOK UP! LOOK UP!
ME: *looks up in rearview mirror* What? What?
ETHAN: *tugs at hair* Look at it! Just look at it!
ME: Okay. I'm looking... And?
ETHAN: Look. At. It. Oh My God! It's such a mess. I need a haircut.
ME: Er. Ah...hahahahahahahaha.
ETHAN: And after my haircut, I need to start making lots of money!
Random? I think not. Because...
Scene: This morning. During breakfast.
ME: I really like your haircut.
ETHAN: I know.
ME: By the way, do you know what day it is today?
ETHAN: Payday.
ME: Whoa. What makes you say that?
ETHAN: Daddy is giving me money today. That way I can save up for a really COOL toy. Maybe I can even get my own bank account and start making lots of money.
There are no words. Seriously. I just sat there, mouth hanging open. This boy is just too quick for me.
And on that bizarre note...
Have a lovely, relaxing weekend!
