Beauty

Carter spent the morning wetting his hair, combing and fluffing it, and finally added a yellow headband that he wears across the back of his head. He came out of the bathroom and caught me by surprise when he said, "My hair looks beautiful."
Cracked me up. I had never heard him use the word "beautiful" and it was certainly not what I was expecting to come out of my little boy's mouth.

Later in the afternoon we were looking at different cakes on the internet to get an idea for his birthday. He was looking at them and commenting on the cool trains, trucks, etc...

Then he caught sight of a garbage truck cake. He gasped with excitement and said,

"The garbage trucker is bootiful."

I guess beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.

That is hilarious. Xander is always picking up the headbands lying around our house and putting them on. Sometimes they're on top, sometimes they're around the back, sometimes they fall from the top to the back...
