Tonight I left the room for one minute. This is what I saw when I came back. What a goofy kid.

The boy seems to be causing some trouble at daycare. The problem lies in that he is not old enough to know the rules regarding sharing toys. He finds it perfectly acceptable to steal his friends' toys, but he will beat them down if they try to take a toy from him. Mind you, he is a year younger than two of his buddies, but he is not afraid to stand up for himself.

Cindy, his sitter, told me that today Toby took a toy away from him. Owen immediately grabbed him by his hair, slammed his body down to the ground, and lunged at him with his mouth wide open, ready to bite, while making an intimidating "raaarrrrr" sound. For some odd reason, Owen didn't realize that actually chomping down at this point would have inflicted more pain. (Those kids better watch out when he does figure this out -- he's got eight little razor blades and a jaw of steel. Trust me on that one.)
Owen isn't old enough to know any better, so it's not like it's a real problem. But seriously? WWF moves at his age?
