Teacopter

This morning dawned damp and rainy. I had a little something stowed away for just such a day -- a little tea set for Cody's kitchen. He was delighted at first ("That sugar bowl has a top just like Daddy's!") and set about playing.

A few minutes later I came in to find him totally engrossed, and said, "Are you making a cup of tea for Mommy?" He looked at me with something approaching disbelief, maybe even scorn, and said: "No Mommy. I turned it into a helicopter. This is a Chinook. The spoon is part of its propeller."

Um, sure. Okay.

Perhaps I should've saved the tea set for Cordelia.
