Flavor of the Week













I was sitting in the kitchen working on uploading the pictures for this blog post, when Zach wandered over. He got so excited seeing his Meem on the screen. Meem! Meem!

Then something caught his attention in the other room, I'm pretty sure it was Elmo's World, and he moved on. This is what it's usually like with Z. He approaches each obsession with intensity and enthusiasm, and then just as easily moves on to the next obsession. It's like this with his toys, and especially movies. He asked for nothing but Monster's Inc (muh-muh) for weeks, then suddenly it was Finding Nemo (neemo!) he was madly in love with. I was very happy when he moved on to loving Tangled (pri-pri  for Princess) and now he goes back and forth between Mulan (lahm) and the Prince of Egypt (ebu). Every once in a while he'll rekindle one of his old flames and ask for them again, but mostly it's this single-minded focus on his current flavor of the week. I just have to keep reminding myself when I wake up in the middle of the night with Disney songs running through my head, that in a few days he'll move on, and hopefully my brain will eventually recover.
