I was pulling the van into the garage when Felix walked in front of me with his hand up to stop so he could move Rex's bike out of the way...unsolicited. I thought, "Wow, Felix is being so thoughtful by helping without being asked." He then proceeded to wave me into the garage making sure I didn't hit anything. "What a great kid!" I thought. Then, all of a sudden I heard, "OWWWWW-CHHHHH!!!! Mom, you just ran over my foot!" I started freaking out and slowly backed the car a little (all the while Daphne is sitting on my lap, and Rex is walking along side the driver's window telling me some random story completely oblivious to the current situation). I asked Felix if he was okay and what happened. He quickly said he was fine and then added, "I wanted to see what it felt like to get my foot run over by a car, so I put my foot under the tire." To which I shouted, "WHAT?!!!" He then added, "It felt like a foot massage. I like getting my toenails squished." We later had to have a serious discussion about not experimenting with what it would feel like getting his head run over by a car. He said, "I'm done with the car experiments."

Million Dollar Ideas...
Felix's idea: I wish days were seasons and each day changed from Summer to Spring to Winter to Fall. Saturdays would be Summer.
Rex's idea: I wish after we ate our food we could spit it back up and it would turn back into the food and we could eat it over and over again until we got sick of it.
