Where the Butterflies Are
Luke: "Mommy, will you read me 'Where the Butterflies Are'?"
Me (noting the book he was holding): "You mean 'Where the Wild Things Are?'" (Which is my favorite children's book ever, by far.)
Luke: "Yes."
And then all the way through he made me change "Wild Things" to "Butterflies."
I keep thinking the poetry I read the kids has wormed its way into that brain of his...the words "Wild Things" and "Butterflies" don't rhyme, but there's something cool and similar to the sound of them...
