Weekend of Excitement

Beth was scheduled to take Marley to see a live-action Elmo show with some other kids today and then get some lunch as a group. This left a big chunk of time for Hayden and Daddy Time.

To make sure that this special time was not impinged upon, Hayden told Beth last night "When you go for lunch tomorrow, make sure you don't go to Barney Greengrass. That's mine and Daddy's special place."


Speaking of Barney GG, Marley asked Beth last night what the green plastic garnish was on her sushi.

"It's grass, Marley."

"Like Barney Greengrass?" Marley asked.

The kid has good points of reference.


Speaking of Hayden and Daddy Time, we got off the subway by the Plaza Hotel and I told Hayden that was where Uncle Steve asked Aunt Leslie to marry him.

"And where did Mommy ask you to marry her, Daddy?" Hayden asked.

She never does forget who wears the tiny pants in the family.


And finally, after a busy day going to the ferris wheel at Toys R Us, the princess pavillion at the Disney Store, the NBA Store (Hayden's idea, believe it or not) and Barney Greengrass, Hayden said to me "Daddy, I had a lovely day."

So did I.
