Dinosaurs eat owies




Owen has grown so much in the past few months. He is shooting up just like all the plants in the garden. His vocabulary is getting more and more vast and he is playing independently for longer periods of time.

He comes up with these concepts that really take thought. The other day he was trying on a new pair of shoes, that have a sort of dinosaur face pattern, and he began to roar like a dinosaur then he said "dinshores eat owies huh mama?" It took me a while to understand what he was talking about. Then I realized he has seen plenty of paleo art ( as his grampy aka"pappy" is an accomplished paleo artist). And some of the works depict dinosaurs eating each other. Owen thinks one dinosaur has an owie and the other one is eating it. I would guess in his mind this is a nice thing to do like helping to fix the owie.

I am amazed at how fast these last two years have flown by. Owen is definitely not a baby anymore. He is all little boy with dinosaur theories of his very own.
