The Letter P

Lately Kai has been stretching out his bedtime by playing in his room after his usual bedtime routine. We usually just let him do his thing knowing it won't take long for him to grow tired and finally lay down and give it up. There have been a couple nights when we have had to go in and remind him it's now time to stay in bed and try to go to sleep. 

As you can imagine there are all kinds of conversations that happen during these times. He tells us lots of funny tidbits about almost anything you can think of mostly about the event of that day, but tonight what he told Mark made us both laugh so hard so we had to share.

Kai has a rug in his room that has the alphabet on it and there have been a few times when we have gone in and noticed he has - for a previously unknown reason - spit his water out onto the rug. As Mark was leaving tonight he noticed there was water on the rug again and he says "Kai, the rug is wet, why is the rug wet?" Kai says "Mama doesn't like the P, so I spit my water on the P" Mark says "Kai , mama doesn't NOT like the letter P, she doesn't like potty talk. There are lots of good words that start with the letter P, like popcorn, cheese puffs, party..."

Ha ha ha! You can't make this stuff up! Such a funny little guy - good to know he's looking out for me, when it comes to that pesky little letter.
