Carter is getting very territorial about our family car, which he considers to be "MY car".
When it snowed in Atlanta last month, the first thing he did when he looked out the window was to gasp and exclaim "I need towel!". He proceeded to grab a tea towel and insist on wiping the snow off the car. He now tries to wipe up the car when it rains.
When Thomas goes to an orchestra performance, leaving Carter and I home without a car, he'll ask, constantly (and very perturbed), "Where my CAR be?!?"
Last night, after reading a story about a car, he looked out the window and said, VERY seriously, "My car stay HERE. You WALK Mama!"

He's just warming up for when he turns 16.................
I was thinking the exact same thing as Cart Cart, thinking that if he's this possessive NOW, you guys are in SERIOUS trouble. :)
what's that they say? the only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys? Carter has champagne taste for an almost-3 year old! Maybe it's just the start of a lifelong obsession. :-)
Oh dear,he's taking after his Daddy Phil. There will be a long line of various vehicles in his future. . .
And he will spend a great deal of time polishing, waxing, (and criticizing those who don't.)
So much for living car free in NYC having made an impression...
make sure you hide those keys! :-)
It makes me so happy to hear he's taking care of his car already!! Nobody seems to understand my obsession with cleaning and shining my car and wiping other people's fingerprints off the windows. Maybe Carter & I can wash our cars together one day! ;-)
