Logan has entered this fantastic world of imagination that continuously becomes more vivid and detailed as he ages.
Some of my recent favorites include:
- "put on your seatbelt and then let's superzoom" (as he puts a fake seatbelt on himself and on me before we run full speed down the hallway)
- before bed: "Mom, I just have to tell you one thing before we sing... There was a wolf and it was biting the dog's toes and tail... No, wait, it was biting everyone. Yeah, the wolf was biting everyone. Then the farmer told him to stop biting. Hmmm.... Okay, the farmer said stop biting but the wolf wouldn't stop biting so the farmer said 'No' and then he stopped. Okay, mom? Tell me that story."
- At 3 a.m. "Mommy there is a hippo in my room and it is so scary." Then, as we enter his room "See mommy, the hippo and the monster and the tiger."
Watching him think through his plans, thoughts, and stories as he explains things to me, especially the long rants at night when he unloads all his fears or happinesses from the day are my favorite moments lately. He wants to lay in my arms like a baby and reveal his magical dreams. I know this won't last for long, particularly the "cuddle me like a baby" request so I better enjoy it now.
