Maybe it's because I spend a good deal of time at home (I'm not complaining--I love being at home!), but Jake seems to be making up imaginary friends for me. Consider this:
FLYLady: Jake asked me recently, "Mommy, do you enjoy working with FLYLady?" When he and I watched a short video of her on the internet, he said, "Wow, that's what your FLYLady looks like?" And once when the house was messy (which may have been a coincidence), he said, "I know you don't work with FLYLady anymore..."
Oprah: Jake actually likes to watch Oprah from time to time (sorry, Ike). Recently while the show was on, I was on the phone and Jake told me, "Mommy, I can't hear the show!" Oops...Anyway, just now he asked me, "Mommy, does Oprah know your name?" Now it's up for debate as to what he meant by this: 1)"Mommy, are you and Oprah good friends?" or, 2) "Mommy, why would you spend so much time admiring someone who doesn't know you exist?"
Hmm...
On another "Things Jake Said" note, yesterday afternoon he asked me for a piece of Halloween candy. When I said he could have one, he said, "But Daddy says I have to spread it out." Thinking this was a good idea to not eat all the candy at once, I said, "Yes, honey, you should spread out your Halloween candy."
Jake then grabbed his Halloween bag, dumped the candy on my bed, started moving the candy around and said, "Okay, will you help me spread my candy out, Mommy?"
Smart kid.
