Daddy's psychic!

After I got up from a nap, groggy and still contemplating the household chores ahead of me, Todd clamored to go to the playground. Poor little man had been cooped up indoors most of the day, he needed a refreshing break. But I had so much to do!

Knowing that Daddy was due to come home from work soon, I got on my computer and IMd him to confirm the exact time, and ask if he could take Todd to the playground. While we were making the arrangements, Todd watched quietly as we typed back and forth. Curious, he asked what Daddy was saying. I told him that Daddy would be coming home soon and taking him to the playground.

Todd's response was three-fold:

1. "Ohhhh, I thought YOU were gonna take me there!"

2. He then leaped around excitedly, yelling "Yahoo!" and smacking his forehead with glee and gusto.

3. When he settled down a bit from the initial excitement, he thought some more and then queried: "How did Daddy know I want to go to the playground?"

I had to laugh and explain that I told Daddy about it on IM :-)
