once upon a time.

On our one-mile drive home from preschool today, Nate said, "Mommy, I want to tell you a story". And so began his little tale...

"Once upon a time 'der was a pwincess. In the castle there was a dragon with fire in his mouth. One day a crocodile came and snapped the pwincess in his mouth. The end."

Stifling giggles, I asked why no one saved the princess. Nate's response:

"Okay, fine. Once upon a time 'der was a pwincess...and all the other things I said. And then the crocodile snapped the pwincess in his mouth and a pwince came to rescue her. The end....are you happy now?"

Eeeesh!

And now for a completely unrelated photo of Bat-Nate in the sandbox...
