Last night we got home after a long enjoyable day with family and Henry ran into his room. He came out a few minutes later wearing his pirate hat, his Zelda shield on his back, a gun in his pocket, and swinging a lightsaber...
"Look Mama! I am ready!"
"Oh wow! You ARE ready. Who are you today?" I asked, expecting him to tell me he is Link, Captian Jack or a Jedi in this new world of pretend play. Instead he looks at me for a second before shrugging and saying "I just Henry."
Oh. Just Henry. The coolest kid I have ever known and the holder of our hearts. Who would want to be anybody else?
I could eat him up, I love him so...
