The One Man Drama Show

Jacob jumped up and announced it was time for a "One Man Drama" show this morning. I knew this to be a ploy to not do his language work, but what the heck, I was in the mood for a little drama.

It started out, "Oh, Juliet, I can't marry you because you are obsolete." and then he flipped around and said, "That hurts me deeply, Joe." I couldn't get past that for laughing so hard and when he stopped to ask me why, I had to tell him that obsolete means no more or extinct.


He processed that for a second and then said, "I can't marry her because she's dead? This really is a drama."

Oh, gosh, I love these kids. Carly came through a few minutes ago dressed for prairie life -- I think -- although that is not a bonnet on her head. That would be the liner that should be in a wicker basket.
