angry pirate

May 18, 2012

On our friend Anna’s suggestion, we borrowed a book from the library about pirates, which included not only stories but craft projects as well.  The day after we got the book, Cedar followed me around all day carrying the book (and his pirate sword and gun) asking me if I would please make pirate stuff with him.  He even brought it to the park and showed the other little boys in our homeschool group, who sat around in a circle looking through it (so cute).  Finally, mama was ready to make some simple pirate stuff, and for a little while, our little guy was happy to be a pirate.
