The other day Jacob was helping me with the laundry. Everytime we went in the laundry room he would point to the yellow gas line and say "that is mine". I had no idea why he would think the gas line is his so I just replied with "really" or "that is nice". On the forth time he said it I stopped to figure out what he was talking about. Here is the gas line...
I asked what the yellow thing was and he couldn't remember the name. I asked him what it was for and he said "for my nose". For you nose? Really? Jacob said "yes, for my nose when I was a baby." Then I remember showing him this picture in his baby book...

He asked about the yellow tube in his nose. I told him that was how he got food when he was a baby until he learned how to eat. We then had show and tell where I got out a NG tube from the extra supplies we never used...
When he saw the huge gas line he thought it was the NG tube and that is why he thought it was his. I told him it was too big for his nose. He asked if it was for when he got older. I was laughing at this point. What a cute little guy!

It just goes to show you there little minds are always going. I too would have been laughing, but also at the same time felt sad that he would even have that concern.
So glad that is behind him. He looked like he had a great time at camp.
(HUGS)
That's funny! He looked SO GOOD at camp.
What a smart boy! Happy 3rd Birthday to Jacob. He looks amazing!
How funny. That would be one big NG tube. He is such a cute little guy. I hope he is doing well.
too cute! I love the things these kids come up with. Our Jacob loves to show off his zipper - one day the sister missionaries dropped by the house and the first thing he did when I opened the door was whip up his shirt and say "Wanna see my zipper!?"
Still looking forward to meeting you one of these days and getting our Jacobs together. We're out in Ohio now - but maybe in a couple summers we'll be able to make a trip out there :-D
