Love, Hate, Boogies and Pee-Pees

As per our usual Tuesdays, Will and I were headed to the park today as my mom watched Liam.  It was a perfect Autumn day... which brings me to today's post...

Three Things I Love about the Fall:

1)  The foliage... orange, red, brown and yelow... my favorite colors.

2)  The weather... not too hot, not too cold.

3)  Halloween and Thanksgiving... my favorite holidays.

Three Things I Hate about the Fall:

1)  Fantasy Football... thanks Tom.

2)  The shorter days... starting to get dark at 6pm... (glad I'm home this year to enjoy the day).

3)  Will's season-long runny nose... gross.

As we were leaving the park today and heading to the car, I reminded Will to hold my hand.  Fidgeting in my bag with one hand to find my keys, I was half-paying attention as he slipped his slimy palm into my hand.  I paused, knowing instantly but asking anyway...

"Will... Ewww gross, is that boogies?"  (Yes, we say 'boogies'.)

"No mom, it's glue, and now we're stuck together."

Got to love the imagination of a 3-year old.  By the way, in the picture at left... That's not a drain...  it's "The Jail for the Bad-Guy Transformers".  

As we pulled into my mom's driveway, I asked Will if he had to go potty...

"Mom (insert long, labored sigh)... Transformers don't go pee-pees (yes, we also say 'pee-pees')... they're robots."

So... to summarize... Transformers... yes to 'boogies'... no to 'pee-pees' ... super.

And to those who read last Tuesday's post... as promised, 166.
