And So It Begins.....

It's official.
My 2 year old has a hero.
His name is Eli.
Eli is a big boy.
He's 3.
Oh yes, a whopping 3!

My son thinks Eli is the absolute coolest kid on the planet.
Eli likes Peter pan, pirates, swords, and all things rough.
Therefore....
Canaan does as well.

When Eli and Canaan get together, there's lots of "that's mine", "Stop", and "No"'s which ultimately results in time outs.

But they love each other.

I remember my first childhood hero. It was this lady.

Yep.
Diana Ross.
I was 3 years old, and I wanted big eyes, an afro, and a dog named Toto just like Diana Ross.
(If you're confused I'm assuming you've never seen the "black" version of The Wizard of Oz entitled THE WIZ. A MUST SEE)

Anyways,
I sure do wish Canaan would go to the big boy potty like Eli so I can stop buying DIAPERS. Geesh!

Did you have a childhood hero?

Olivia Newton John was mine. My dad was in love with her from a teenager, and so he had all her tapes and such. Therefore I was exposed to large doses of her, and she became my idol. Heck, I even named my first child after her. Sad, I know.
