My 5-year-old is a teenager!

Johnny's new thing is calling his friend Sarah on the phone. It's totally adorable. I read off Sarah's phone number to him, and Johnny wrote it on a big piece of paper. So, now, when he wants to call her, he gets the phone and dials her number. When Mrs. Freed answers, he asks to talk to Sarah. He starts out asking me what he should say to her, but when he gets warmed up, then he wants to go somewhere private to talk to her. He asks her what she's doing, he tells her about his day, and this evening he asked her if she had time to draw a letter to send him (they like to get and receive mail from each other, too). Then they hung up and he drew a picture of her and a picture of himself each holding a telephone. He put it in an envelope to send her in the mail. I just love it - too cute for words!!
