Mom: So what are you drinking?
JP: I'm drinking some Coke..or lemonade...or Pepsi.
Mom: Oh, Pepsi. How come Mommy is giving you a special Pepsi?
JP: Because it's down stairs. In the basement. Between those boxes. On top of the frigerator.
Mom: But what did you do to earn your Pepsi?
JP: Because I dranked it. Or because...ummm!
Mom: No, listen carefully. What did JP do today to earn his Pepsi. Did you have to do something special.
JP: Yes.
Mom: What?
JP: Well, I just have to get started...playing games with our friends.
Mom: Did you have OT2 today?
JP: Yes. What did you have to do at OT2 in order to earn a Pepsi?
Mom: Write and play games.
JP: Were there any special rules mommy made....
JP: Yes...
(spills entire Pepsi on om's lap as she is transcribing the conversation)
Mom: Oh! JP! Ugh!
JP: (stunned silence)
Mom: What happened!
JP: I spilled my Pepsi.
Mom: Quick let's get a towel to clean it up. It's okay these things happen.
(JP is very anxious and on the edge of freaking out. Mom gets a towel and together we mop it up.)
Mom: Did that make you sad?
JP: But it make me confused.
Mom: What was confusing?
JP: I don't know...but hey I got an idea.
Mom: What's that?
JP: I'm going to give you a think.
Mom: A think? Can I have my think?
JP: Yes.
Mom: Okay, I'm waiting for my think.
JP: Let's see. I'll pick and see. I pick...videos.
Mom: Oh, I see. Well I'd rather keep talking here at the computer.
JP: Well I like to play my Nick Jr.
Mom: What is your favorite game on Nick Jr?
JP: My...I like... the Backyardigans driving their truck.
Mom: Anyone else?
JP: I was trying to play the Backyardigans racing adventure. But it's a puzzle. We got to put it on before it disappears.
Mom: Why would it disappear?
JP: Because I have to turn it back on. I have to click the mouse to turn it back on.
Mom: I see.
JP: Maybe...I know...let's think about...I know I can play my Playhouse Disney.
Mom: Did we have company last week?
JP: Oh, yes, Mommy! But hey! I can play my Playhouse Disney. Spell. playhousedisney.com. First make a www dot and a playhousedisney dot com.
Mom: Yep, you're right. But Mommy asked you a question.
JP: Oh.
Mom: Did we have company last week?
JP: Yes.
Mom: Who?
JP: Me.
Mom: Did anyone else stay the night?
JP: Yes, my friend baby bear and bob the builder CD. Spud the dragon, Bob's boots and Bob's big surprise and Pincher goes fishing. (The 4 stories on his Bob CD storybook)
Mom: JP, did Grandma and Grandpa visit us last week.
JP: Yes, but Mommy. Grandma is going to be here to go to the boy parade.
(huh?)
Mom: Did Grandma come to help mommy with the garage sale?
JP: Yes.
Mom: Did we sell some toys at the garage sale.
JP: Yes. But I got a question for you.
Mom: What is that?
JP: I can make a toy parade. I can move and pick up toys. Be careful to not bump into the furniture or you lose toys. (script from a nickjr game)
Mom: Did you sell any of your Thomas at the garage sale?
JP: Ha! I did one. I had one. I had one BIG Thomas.
Mom: And you sold him!
JP: Yes, I was so happy to be him.
Mom: Did you like that Thomas.?
JP: But that boy likes him. Maybe if the boy doesn't he'll bring him back here.
Mom: I think is great that you are giving him your Thomas.
(This was a motorized BIG Thomas that JP was afraid of for a couple of years. He loved Thomas but NOT that particular one. We used this train to teach him to say "no" and "turn it off please". At first he would break down in hysterics if it got turned on. Finally with a lot of effort he got so he could tell us that he didn't want it on and asked us to turn it off. So needless to say it was a love/hate relationship. Still JP was very intrigued that this other little boy wanted the train and actually did really well with the other little guy walking off and taking it home. JP keeps alluding that the boy might bring it back. I have a feeling JP would prefer he wouldn't!)
JP: But he will bring it back here! Later.
(THE END)
