| Big Boy Leo |
Lately, Leo wants me to tell him a story at bedtime instead of reading him one. Each night, I tell him two stories, The Adventures of Big Boy Leo and Tales of Fat Chuck, a story about our slightly overweight cat. Last night Leo told me he wanted to tell the story of "Big Boy Leo." Leo has a wild imagination so I brace myself for whatever my come next. He starts out the story with Big Boy Leo taking a helicopter ride up the mountain (our new hometown is surrounded by mountains and Leo is fascinated with them). Big Boy Leo stops to eat his picnic lunch of PB&J and a Capri-sun then, continues up the mountain. When Big Boy Leo gets up to the top of the mountain he looks around. Of course, I try to keep the story going by asking what he sees on top of the mountain. Leo tells me that Big Boy Leo sees the North Pole where Santa lives. The story continues with details of Santa, his elves and other Christmas things. Then, Leo says that Santa asked Big Boy Leo if he was good this year. Big Boy Leo replied "Not so much, but a little." Wow, unfortunately so true. Here's hoping that Santa values honesty and is willing to overlook a few things!
