Patrick likes to script our lives. For example, we will be riding in the car and he will say..
Patrick-“Mommy?”
Me-“Yes, Patrick?”
Patrick-“No ‘Yes Patrick.’ ‘Yes, Buddy’!”
Then..
Patrick- “MOMMY!!?”
To which I must reply, “Yes, Buddy.”
And then he tells me what he wants.
Only yesterday he was not Buddy. He was “Buckle Boy”. Just out of the blue. And after a few repetitions, daddy added “King Buckle Boy”.
All day today he has been “King Buckle Boy”. Well, that and “Meow meow” which came from a conversation I missed between him and daddy.
Hooray for imagination
