Kevin

Life man....life over here is the cat's pajamas.
Let's talk about "Kevin". "Kevin" is a shifty individual who is repeatedly playing hide and seek and is very, VERY difficult to find. I still have yet to capture him.

"Kevin", seems to be Violet's imaginary friend.

We have no idea where she picked up on the name. None of the 12-15 min TV programs I allow her to watch in the mornings while I shower have characters who are named Kevin. No one, from either mine or Cristian's family, are named Kevin. There is no one named Kevin in nursery at church. We've never been around a pet named Kevin.
Somehow, somewhere she has picked up on this name and every morning the first thing she says, after expressing she needs to go potty is "Mom, wheh di Kevin go?" "Mom, fine Kevin!" "Kevin! Wheh ah you?!"
After getting her off the potty and putting her clothes back on, Violet clutches my hand in hers and tows me around the house investigating every high and low nook for this guy. We duck under the kitchen table and open up cupboard and drawers, she peeks under the covers of our bed, and has me open up the fridge, all in the pursuit to find KEVIN. Apparently, my darling little girl has yet to have the pleasure of actually meeting him also.

This has been going on for about 4 days.

I don't ever remember having an imaginary friend, but I guess my older brother Toby had one when he was little which was a rabbit..named "Rabbit". He would always get "stuck" in the heater vent . From what my mom tells me life could just NOT continue until "Rabbit" was no longer stuck. Her words: "I couldn't understand how he could imagine him getting stuck, but not be able to imagine him getting OUT of the heater vent".

Who knows right?
One day we will find him, "Him" meaning Kevin. I'm not sure when, or what will happen if we do, but for now we're enjoying this funny little stage she's in.
