Drew, Drew What to Do?

My son, Drew, is legendary for his ability to tear things up or just make a huge mess. We've had bananas stuffed down air-conditioning vents. Dirty diapers removed while jumping on the bed. An entire bag of cat food spread all over the floor. Spaghetti smeared on the wall and then thrown across the room. No type of food can be left within reach or he'll open it, take a few bites and then proceed to stomp it into the floor or carpet; for instance, he took a bag of Cheerios last week and poured them in the floor then he proceeded to do the Mexican hat dance all over them while my daughter died laughing. Once her laughter subsided she came into the bathroom and told me that Drew made a mess with the Cheerios. I've lost count of how many toys I removed from the toilet and fish aquarium. Then there was that unfortunate incident at grandma's involving Drew and "gan-didty's" moo butter foot cream. Drew crawled in the corner behind the recliner and smeared thick lotion up to his elbows and knees; then the smeared it all over the floor. You should have seen him trying to get up and walk. He was a slippin' and a slidin'. Now we come to his latest, but not greatest destructive feat.

He just woke-up from a nap and destroyed my pillow, you know, one of those $30 memory foam ones with the nice little zipper pillow case. Well, he unzipped it; (I've never seen him even use a zipper); then he tears it into a million little pieces all over the bed. When I asked him why he tore-up mommy's pillow he said "Me don't know; me buy you new one". It took a long time to pick up all the little pieces, which was a good thing because it gave me time to cool-down and not be so angry. The funny thing is my husband was asleep right beside him the whole time. He is such a cute charming little fellow and so sweet with his big smile, wet, opened-mouth kisses and huge hugs, but he sure can be a devilish little rascal when the notion strikes him and it seems to strike daily.

He has started asking me "You know what?" He'll repeat the question until I answer "What?" Then he'll say "Me love you!" He likes to spice it up every now and then and try to rattle me by saying "Me no lub you!" and just giggling and laughing about it. He's got a very sharp little sense of humor. He picks up on anything that is funny and just giggles. I love you Drew, even though you are destroying everything we have. You sure do make life interesting.
