While driving home from picking up Will at Montessori a few days ago, we drove past the high school football team practice. We had the following conversation:
Me: Hey look, they are playing football!
Will: I want to play football.
Me: (silently cheering inside!) Great! You can play football when you are a big boy.
Will: I AM a big boy!
Me: I know you are a big boy. I just meant when you are older, when you go to a bigger school.
Will: I'm a big boy. I'm bigger than (insert list of classmates here). I'm bigger than E. He's small.
Me: Yes, you are taller than E. That's right.
Will: E needs to eat his broccoli. That will make him a big boy.
