In the Grocery Store
Thomas: I have a good idea!
Mum: Really? What is it?
Thomas: Let’s buy me something!
In the car
Referring to some ice cream cones we saw in the store the day before. They had a picture of Buzz and Woody from Toy Story on them. Thomas calls them Woody and Buzz popsicals.
Mum: How about we make something for Nan and Grandpa to send in a package to Australia. Maybe you could draw a picture for them when we get home.
Thomas: I have a good idea!
Mum: What’s your idea?
Thomas: We could give the Woody and Buzz popsicals to Nan as a present and then we could share them.
By the way, the Toy Story thing is a little out of control. Thomas acts out scenes from the film with his BUzz and Woody dolls – word for word. He can also spot a marketed product in the grocery store from 50 meters. Sadly it seems Fred Meyer has stopped stocking the Toy Story string cheese. I anticipate many frustrating grocery store visits in our future.
And here’s a quick picture of our little manipulator in his Aussie hat.
