Mommy's School

Today as we were getting ready to leave the house, me to go to work and Ben to childcare, we had a very funny interaction.  Ben doesn't really grasp the concept that Mommy goes to work and not school since he and Daddy both go to school.  I also always try to sort of pump him up for "school" in the morning by talking about all the fun things he gets to do during the day.  It goes a little something like this. "All your friends are waiting for you.  You are going to have music time, do some fun coloring, eat lunch, have a nap, play outside!" And I say all of this is a super excited voice like he's going to Disneyworld.  He GETS to do all of these things!  So back to today, he says, "Daddy at his Demon school today, Benny is going to his school and you get to go to school Mommy.  All your friends are waiting for you!  You get to take a nap, and have lunch!  It will be fun!" And he did it with the funniest expression on his face.  I am pretty sure it was the best Mommy impression Ben has done to this date.  Such a funny kid!
