Driving through Rock Creek Park on the way home from Runnymede last night Charlie said “Scary monster. No scary hiding in woods hiding in trees. Monster no eat li’lle boy. Eat food.” Where did he get the idea that monsters would eat little boys? I replied that of course there were no scary monsters hiding, if there were any they were nice and that they would not eat little boys. So C said “Charlie big chef cooks dinner monsters. Li’lle baby monster eat kiwi. Big monster eat salad. Love kiwi. Hi monster! Monster scared Daddy.”

Where did he get the idea that there could even be monsters in Rock Creek?
