The other day we ran into the Skinners at Golden Spoon (the second best frozen yogurt in town). Ethan comes over to sit on my lap. I immediately notice his green tongue. He admits he has been snacking on M & M's - his favorite candy.Then the following conversation ensues:
Jane: Ethan what do you want for your birthday since it is so close and everyone is only talking about Christmas
Ethan: Something, Something dinosaur
Jane: Oh is that the remote control one. '
Ethan: Yes it is so cool and probably bigger than me
Jane: What else do you want?
Ethan: A remote control car
Jane: What color?
Ethan: Blue
Jane: How about silver (which is wrapped and already under the tree waiting for him)
Ethan: ummmm no, you can give a silver one to my friend and I will have blue
Jane: Anything else
Ethan: Yes Star Wars I love Darth Vadar, he doesnt even scare me
Jane: Ethan you are so darn cute we should get a picture
Ethan: Ok, but I want it of my green tongue and your long one

I would've thought that with 3 children of your own, you would already know when to stop the line of questioning.
Great pic though!
1) I love Ethan! He's so darn cute!
2) your freakishly long tongue rivals the Queen's freakishly long toes!
I can totally hear your end of this conversation...too funny!
love the freaky tongue pic :) and especially that he called you out on having a long one!
This is a great post, Jane! I would just like to know why you were all at the 2nd best yogurt place...was the best place closed?
Ethan holds a special place in my heart for conversations just like this one!
He couldnt be more adorable. As for your tongue I have a rebutal post coming......
I just think you are a exceptionally great aunt that you would even brave the return line to get him another one. That is love!!
(His conversations are so funny. I think he would make the world's best filibuster; he can talk forever.)
P.S.
Yes, that is a nice tongue. Do you think that debate is like exercise for your tongue and therefore it can get bigger? I bet your tongue can bench press more than my tongue.
Too cute! Mom
