So I'm getting the kids ready for church and notice out of the corner of my eye, Jacob running around with Anarosa's scarf sticking out of the back of his pants........hmm..
"Jacob?"
"Yes, Mom"
"Why do you have a scarf in your pants?"
"I'm a Monkey Boy.......you said if I ate all those bananas I would turn into a monkey boy and I did!"
(I don't remember saying such a thing, but it does sound like something I would say, so we'll roll with it) I let him run around with the scarf for a few minutes thinking he'll get tired of it.
Pretty soon Anarosa comes to get her scarf back because it's time to leave for church. Jacob won't give it back.
"But I'm a monkey boy and I need my tail"
"Yes, I know, but it's really Anarosa's scarf and she wants to wear it to church"
"WHY would she want to wear a GROSS MONKEY TAIL TO CHURCH?, besides, if she pulls my tail off of me I will DIE!!"
Sooo...just how do you convince a monkey boy to give up his tail?

I side with Jacob! You could argue that she probably doesn't want to wear the "gross monkey tail" since he had it in his pants! HaHa- I'm sure it really isn't gross. But the other side of the arguement is a dilema for sure!
P.S. How is work going? And we need more pictures of Jay - pretty pleeeeaaase!
