When C grows up . . .

Benjamin put an alphabet puzzle together yesterday. It is a cute puzzle that has each upper-case letter occupying a room in a house. Each room is full of animals and objects that start with that letter. The puzzle also has cut outs of kids wearing t-shirts with the lower-case letters on them. So the letters can be matched.

Anyway, after he put it together, I started asking him questions about the letters. For example, "how are E and F different?" He studied them for a second, then said, "well, when F grows up it will turn into E because it has more lines." He also decided that K will grow into X, C will become G, O will become Q, and P will become B. I thought the cutest was: "When W grows up, it will turn into M because it is upside down." And of course V will become W. He also had some creative ideas for the lower-case letters.

Sigh. Babies all grow up, don't they.
