Yesterday we went to Target. While we were shopping there was a group of people from Invision which is a local center for mentally handicapped people. One of the women in the group saw Oliver and fell in love with him. She came over to him in the cart and tried to say hi to him but Oliver just ignored her. I asked Oliver to show the woman the new car he picked out and he said, "No. Want get out of here." which made everyone laugh. The woman and I tried a few more times to get Oliver to comply but he just didn't want to talk to a stranger. We started to walk away and got halfway down the aisle when Ollie burst into tears. I asked him what was wrong and he said, "Want show lady my car! I ready!". So I pushed him back over to the woman and Oliver had a nice little conversation with her about his new car.
When we got home Oliver had to add his new car to his bucket full of cars. When he did so he realized that he now had two Maters (Mater is a character from the Disney movie "Cars"). He looked at both of them and said, "6,7,8 Maters! Give one to Emma." and he proceeded to hand his brand new car that he had just picked out at Target to his sister. For this story to be special you need to know just how possesive Oliver is with his bucket of cars. He can't even sleep unless it is in his bed with him! It was a big deal for him to give Emma one of his cars. Especially his brand new one.
