Obsessions

From time to time William changes his obsession, but there is usually an obsession. For the past month or two the obsession has been....

can you guess...

is it a super hero?....

is it a new movie?....

is it a food?.....

here it is

That's right, it is a cow.

I guess not a cow, but cows. Preferably black and white with no udders.

The cow below does not have an udder(according to William), in case you were wondering.

He kept asking to go to a friends house so he could play with their cow so I told him we would go to D.I. and find a toy cow. This is the best we could find and it has been his good friend ever since. When I asked what his name was he said, "Aslan...is Aslan a boy?" When I said yes he declared that Aslan it was. A couple of days later while he was playing I heard him say, "run like the wind Aslan."


When we were rummaging through stuff at another thrift store William came across this barn and insisted that he needed it for Aslan's home. I agree. And I love the look on his face in the above picture.
At our last trip to the mall he discovered this stationary cow that he could sit on (because I don't pay a dollar for toys to shake).

I can't wait for the weather to cool off so we can head out to a dairy farm and he can see the cows in action.

Oh, and every time he asks for a drink of milk he says, "may I have some cows milk please?"

What a kid.
