Today we came home from church and found ourselves at the kitchen table. After a pause in the conversation Big Bird exclaimed, "Sweetie! I just had an epiphany!" After giving him an inquiring look (as my mouth was full and it is impolite to talk in this particular situation) he continued, "You are my Pensive!" (After the initial confused look I'm sure I looked amused.) He felt the need to explain (probably because I was trying to decide if this was a compliment or not...) that he can extract his memories and thoughts into a safe place and that I make sure he remembers the important things when he needs to. :) He followed with "... and I mean that in the best possible way..."
I think reading these books has gotten into his thinking patterns a little... but he's kinda cute and I love him with all I've got. Thanks for keeping our conversations interesting!
P.S. I have permission for this particular post... including picture... Big Bird picked it out!
Love the picture, but I'd like to know more of the story behind it. Was he wearing a nose plug? I'm going to have to look up a few of those words.
