Wassin


"I have to close the door so the monster doesn't come."
"What's the monster's name?"
"Wassin."
"What does he look like?"
"He look like an oval."
"Tell me more about the monster. What color is he?"
"BLACK!"

Later he corrected me that the name is Watson. I'm not sure how much he's decided about his monster.

The icing on the cake to this story is that as I was waiting for the picture to load, Josh came home and Micah and I didn't hear him. He quietly opened the door to the room we were in and shut it fast. He did this a few times. Micah really thought it was a monster. He cried when he saw Daddy.

And I got it all on film.

Edited to add:
I just had some time to ask more about Wassin. Here's what Micah has told me about his monster friend. Yes, now it's his friend and we decided he's silly. Wassin has 2 legs, 3 arms, 9 noses, 9 eyes, and green hair. I think the green hair will look really good on the black oval body.

Wassin lives in the car wash by Grammie's house.

So, I just learned that they are no longer teaching kids about the shape we know as an oval (at least here in KS) -- it is now called an ellipse...y'know, to help them get ready for standardized tests. So lame!

He's so cute...and creative! I'm glad the monster is his friend and he's not scared of it!
