Robotship gonna get you

I took the boys to St. Simons for Abraham's winter break (Winter break at preschool??!!). I'll be honest-it was both harrowing and fun. Now that a little over a month has passed, I think I have recovered enough to remember the good parts they: Seeing grandparents (my parents), not wearing winter clothes, playing on playgrounds, seeing my sister and Ashley.

Also on that trip, Angelo discovered his fear of mechanical robots. Grand pop got a robot from a friend of his and one night Abraham, Angelo and I played with it. It's pretty big and talks and walks. The next day, Grand pop took Angelo up to the room where the robot was to show him. Well, he freaked out, ran in the corner and cried. Angelo spent the rest of the trip saying "robot ship gonna get you." (pronounced: robot ship gonna get yooowwwww). Every time we talked to Aaron on the phone, Angelo would shout out that the robot ship was gonna get you and would want to exp
lain that Aaron on the phone. Abraham was very respectful of this fear and didn't ask to play with the robot. When Angelo was napping we would get it out but that was it. 

He now kind of has a curiosity about robots and is ok with them as long as they aren't moving or talking.
