It's Eddie's

In true 2-year old fashion, Eddie has concluded that as long as something belongs to him, there are no restrictions. Of course in his mind, this means that anything and everything belongs to Eddie, as long as he says so. Here are a few examples of the outrageous things Eddie has claimed ownership of in the last few weeks:

Eddie's river.

This means he can dump as much water as he wants on the dry banks where we are sitting.

Eddie's temple.

He thinks he can hold it. Luckily he seems to understand what "too big" means and that generally satisfies him until the next time we drive by.

Eddie's couch.

He feels he can draw on it with a pen, dump entire cups of water on it, smash goldfish into its crevices, jump on it, and climb up onto the back of it in order to look in the mirror.

Eddie's cart.

Eddie's toy.

Eddie is not a fan of sharing. Luckily, according to Eddie's rules, he can just claim a toy as "Eddie's" and then he'll never have to share again. This includes toys that are not his by any normal societal standards.

Eddie's lake.

Unfortunately Daybreak does not agree that the lake is Eddie's and, therefore, still will not let him swim in it.

Eddie's Daddy.

Yes, this one is partially true. Dave is Eddie's Daddy, but he says it likes he owns Dave and can, therefore, climb up and sit on his head in the middle of sacrament meeting.

Eddie's Sarah Sue's house.

Sure, he visits nearly every day and acts like he owns the place, but to claim dual ownership is quite the advanced concept for a 2-year old brain, if you ask me.

"I hereby proclaim this post property of Eddie."
