One Day...

The latest love of John's life is Bob the Builder. I like Bob too, for his team-oriented, can-do attitude.

A few weeks ago, Big Daddy won a Bob (doll) at a carnival game. I've never seen anyone so competitive about "Wac-a-Mole", but there was a Bob at stake!

The other day, I was trying to get John to use the potty. He said he'd go and that Bob should go with him. Sure, no problem, of course Bob can go. John wanted Bob to go on the potty too, and we all know that you have to take your pants down to go on the potty, right? Bob's pants are permanently attached to his doll-body. I tried to explain this to John, that Bob's pants are a "stays-on". My wishful, optimistic little boy looked off in the distance, replying: "Some day, Bob's pants will work Mommy, some day..."
