This weekend we were in San Luis Obispo for a little getaway and I decided to take the boys down to explore one of our favorite creeks. As we’re walking toward the path, Jake says, “Oh hey. Maybe you should go say ‘hi’ to our friend.”
The friend he’s referring to runs the Just Looking art gallery. Our favorite art gallery. And, well, the only art gallery we know.
So I ask, “Jake, what’s our friend’s name?”
“Hmmm, I dunno.”
“I’ll give you a hint. He has the same name as Barbie’s boyfriend.”
“Uh…(long pause)… Sydney?”
“What?! Barbie’s boyfriend Sydney?!”
“Uh… James?”
“James? Barbie and James?”
Clearly I am losing the battle here at home. I have got to get some more dolls and unicorns around this place.
As we’re finishing-up at the creek Jake says, “All right Mom. Let’s go visit our buddy, Syd.”
Ha Ha wise guy.
