Dad's Influence

Lately Joshua has been saying "I like _(fill in the blank)__" about everything. We were at Target yesterday and people were actually laughing as he walked by and said, "I like____" to every other item he spotted. So last night as Joshua was looking at a Fisher Price catalog that had come in the mail he found a picture of a ride-on Mustangs. First he identified them as Mustangs (yes he knows what several cars are by name, including Mustangs) and then went on to name them as red and pink Mustangs. Then to the shock of his father he said, "I like pink!" The look on Cory's face was priceless! He never thought his car-loving son would choose a pink Mustang over a red one! So Cory went over to the catalog and pointed to the pink Mustang and made a wimpy sounding engine noise; then he points to the red Mustang and uses a loud, boisterous engine sound. Joshua of course followed suit and has been pointing at the pictures and copying just what his dad has taught him. Not exactly what I want to teach him, so hopefully it won't stick.
