This is gonna be fun....

Last night, I put R3 to bed. I gave him his bottle for the night, turned Thomas the Tank Engine on and went to tidy a few things up before I read him his Bible story. I finished up pretty soon, and decided it was time to turn the TV off. R3 and I had an interesting conversation:

Me: "Say goodnight, Thomas." As I reach for the TV

R3: "No."

Me: "Ronnie, it's time to go to bed. Say goodnight, Thomas."

R3: "No."

Me: "RONNIE." I raised my voice a bit.

R3: "It's Edward."

Me: "Oh....... Say goodnight, Edward."

R3: "Ok. Goodnight Edward." He then rolls over and snuggles into his bed.

I turn the TV off.

It turns out that as I was asking R3 to say goodnight to Thomas, Edward was the train on the TV at that moment. For someone that isn't 3 years old yet, that's pretty sharp. I'm gonna have to be pretty careful in his teen years...
