The toddler and the teen
May 20, 2011
Sophia was assaulting her Barney doll with hugs and kisses.
"I love Barney," she crooned. "MOM! I LOVE Barney! I LOVE you, Barney!"
"Yes, Sophia," Tre said, not turning around from the computer, "Barney loves you too." (Darkly, sotto voice) "For LUNCH."
"TRE!" I wasn't sure what to accuse him of, but I was pretty sure he was guilty of it.
"What? Mom, he's a DINOSAUR. A CARNIVORE. I'm just saying."
I think I'm in over my head here.
Tre better watch out --- that dinosaur has been known to inspire slavish and fierce devotion in two-year old girls.

I'd take on the dinosaur WAY before I'd go up against the princess.
I'm just saying.
