The Batwing Megazord

John had half a day at school on Friday and he spent majority of the day in Time+.  I picked him up first and in the car he told me that he and two other boys came up with a great idea during Time+.  He told me: "Someone read a book about teeth.  And we decided that we would make the ultimate fighter.  I will be a narwhal and someone else would be a shark and the other guy would be an elephant.  And we would be rich.  Wanna know how we are going to be rich?  Well the elephant would work on cars, because he could lift them up.  I would tie a string to my tooth and catch fish.  And did you know that shark loose their teeth every day?  Well he would just put his teeth under his pillow and the tooth fairy will leave him money."

I thought this was the end of the story with the narwhal, elephant and the shark.  But it didn't end in there.  He talked to me the entire car ride to go and pick up Gillian.  The car ride from school to home.  And when he saw Daddy, he told him all about his idea.  He also decided that the three of them could combine to become a "Megazord."  After dinner, he sat and drew out plans for a "Batwing" and some weapons that each of them would carry. 

Today, he decided when all three of them combine into the Megazord, and use the Batwing they become "The Batwing Megazord."  I'm not really sure I understand all of his logic.  But I am glad that he is using his imagination.

My funny boy

First thing this morning John says "Do you know what today is? It's the greatest day ever!" After a few questions he told me "It's cookie day! I get to bring cookies to school to share with my friends."

The other day I picked the kids up from school and it was already dark out. John said "Mommy, is it dark outside? I know
what I can do!" We went outside and he says "See mommy? My shirt lights up!" And he was totally right he was wearing a glow-in-the-dark shirt.

John got a new Halloween shirt this year. It has a cape on it. John calls it "a cave."

On our way home from school today, John said "Do you see those strings?" I said what strings. He said "The ones high up in the air! They connect all the phones together."

I love his perspective.
