I've had many funny conversations with Avery lately. He seems to be going through an identity crisis...
Today at the grocery store, he started thinking out loud. "I wish I was Diego," he said. But apparently, he just wants to be Diego so Abby can be Alisha.
A few days ago he started asking me about growing up:
Avery: "Mommy, when I grow up, will I be big?"
Me: "Yup."
Avery: "Mommy, when I'm a growed-up, can I drive a car?"
Me: "You sure can."
Avery: "Can I drive your van?"
Me: "Well, I hope to have a new vehicle by then..."
Avery: "Mommy, when I grow up, can I have mine own car?"
Me: "Probably. What kind of car would you like when you grow up?"
Avery: "I'm going to have a green and yellow car. A hot car." (He means he wants flames
painted on the side)
Me: "Sounds interesting. What kind of job are you going to have when you grow up?"
Avery: "I'm going to fix things. Like my hot car."
At least he has goals.

I know he wishes he was Diego. Thursday at my house, he kept telling me he was Diego. Every time I called him Avery, he told me his name is Diego. He has also been "fixing things" here - thermostats, oven knobs, door locks...
Love his goals! And quite frankly, he's chosen a good career, because cars will ALWAYS need to be repaired! (Linked to you through Beck - cute blog! I am in Ohio too!)
to Mumsy,
Isn't having grandsons fun??
to Jill,
Hopefully HOT cars will also always need repaired!
