Fun

Michael and I are having fun. Yesterday, I took him to the mall. Ok, no need to pass judgement.

I took him to the mall for a free puppet show there! We went to the toy store before hand where he played for a long time. Then, he tried to convince me that he wanted to go home. He even made that big eyes brimming with tears and a frown face that makes you want to go, "Oh, fine. OKAY."

But I said we would just stop by and if he didn't like it, we could go home. He agreed to that and we got there to hear the pre-show music coming from the speakers.

In the words of Jason Schumacher, I think "the house music just took over" for Michael because he was interested enough to stay. And when the puppet show started, he was in complete AWE. HE. LOVED. IT. Talked about it for the rest of the day: Puppet show. Michael liked it. Dog puppet. Pirate puppet. Dog talked to pirate.

Today, we went to the Luxembourg Gardens to feed the ducks/fish. Then went to Poussin Vert, the playground there that you have to pay for but it's big and great. And then Michael wanted to go eat at a cafe so he ordered duck with a cauliflower gratin and green beans. Seriously. I told him the menu choices (quiche, beef, duck). He picked the duck. That's my boy for ya.

AND.HE. LOVED. IT. Ate all of his share and a little scoop of ice cream. We had such an awesome lunch, out in the sun, in a Paris cafe.

It is SO. FUN.
