Big and Strong

Tonight life spiraled into chaos right before bedtime (this is normal for us).  Calvin was really tired and, as is his habit, he got more and more wound up until I finally told Talmage to sleep in my bed and made Calvin sleep alone in his room (gasp!).  This did not go over well.  Completely distraught he pulled out the big guns...

Calvin: I no want to grow big and stwong.  I wan to stay smawl and eat lots of bad food...I eat candy and wolves (?) and bugs.  I not goin to eat bweakfast! I goin to stay smawl FOEVER!!

Apparently, he is under the impression that the idea of him staying at this stage forever is enough to push me over the edge.  He might be right.
