The Tyke has finally reached that age. The one where he is finally old enough to start doing "stuff". He has blossomed into this amazingly charismatic and delightful little dude that is the perfect sidekick.
He's always full of questions, and I love to see how his mind works things out. We were talking about bodies and he didn't quite understand what a body was, so I explained that his arms, legs, feet, bellybutton, etc. are all parts of his body...body parts. That was the moment it clicked for him, and he breathed a big sigh, gave me a big hug, and said "I love you, Mom."
Earlier today, The Tyke was playing in his kiddie pool outside and asked me if he could play "candy bars". I assumed this was some game he made up with his friends from down the street, so I asked him what it was. He said it was when they jumped off the lawn chair (which they had me put half in/half out of the pool yesterday) into the pool and yell "Candy bars!!" I looked at him and said, "Could they have been yelling 'cannonball'?"
I got a response of "No, it's candy bars." I guess Mom doesn't always know the right answer. But I sure am crazy about this kid...no question.

Not going to lie Mel, I was relieved with your explanation ;)Too many ways a story including boys, pools and candy bars can go wrong ;) What a cutie.
