good cars vs evil cars

We let our oldest play in his room before bedtime.. Kind of his quite time to unwind I guess.. Probably a no no in every bedtime book any parent has ever read, but o-well.. :) The other night I went in after the timer had gone off to help him pick up his cars - which are strategically lined up on his bed. When I told him to start putting them in his spider man bag, he told me that only the good guys could go in there. I'm glad I stopped myself from being the mom who is just ready for bedtime and ready to get the mess cleaned up, because the reason behind his madness was quite entertaining. When I asked him why the bad guys couldn't be put with his good guys, he told me, "because the bad guys will shoot the good guys and the bag will catch on fire and burn up.".... Hmmmm??? I guess that makes sense.. So he put the good guys away and I carried his bag into the living room and got his old Easter basket for the bad guys. Once the bad guys were in the basket I was told to put them on his desk.. I am just assuming he wanted to keep an eye on them of course.. This kiddo makes me giggle everyday.. I absolutely love his reasoning for everything.. Again, I am so happy I asked why!!!!!

That picture is

of him sleeping with his monster trucks lined up in a row. He went on a monster truck kick for about 2 weeks after attending Monster Jam... :)
