Odd?

I think I have odd children. And I'm pretty sure Nate does too. Does it make me love them less? No. In fact, it's quite the opposite....most of the time ;) I like that my kids are themselves and that sometimes they have odd behaviours. Take for instance, Jonah. Jonah gets fascinated with things. I've posted before about him. At times though, the fascinations make me go, "hmmm".

This picture was taken a while back. Notice anything strange? If you said he is laying next to detergent and fabric softener, you are correct! He LOVES them. He loves when I buy new kinds. But for a while, he would lug them around with him. For the record, he has NEVER tried to open and drink them & I do watch him. Kind of like with the fan deal. People get scared that he is going to put his finger in a fan as he watches it spin. But he has never tried that. He simply is interested in looking at the objects. Now, he will help me with laundry & ask me to smell the cup after I pour it in.

I'm pretty sure this was the day he was playing on the trampoline with the neighbor girls and decided to take the detergent and fabric softener with him. The bottles sat on the trampoline. And I'm pretty sure the neighbor girls were like, "What the heck?"
