Always the Jokester

Ethan has decided he likes rock music and country music and often requests those for room time.
He has also discovreed the joy of a "joke" and started telling them to everyone:
ETHAN: "What happens if a dinosaur eats your hat?"
VICITM: "I don't know, what?"
ETHAN: "You have to get another hat!!!"
Then he proceeds to giggle and laugh until he comes up with another "what if a dinosaur eats ______" (you fill in the rest). Imagine this for at least 30 minuntes in the car. Fun, but after a while it got really old. It is HILARIOUS, though; mostly because he cracks himself up. That kid has a great smile & laugh.
If I'm upset with him & he's been in trouble (oh, no, not this kid), oh yeah....he'll look at me and say "mommy, would you smile at me??" I know it's his way of asking if everthing is o.k. between us, but it still cracks me up. Of course, I always give him a smile and remind him that even though I might not like what he DOES, I will always love him. It's a fun teaching moment, but sometimes difficult to come by.
