Jimmy the Gourd

The other day Iwalked into the kitchen and Enoch had taken my butternut squash and drawn eyes on it and a mouth. He said it was Jimmy-the gourd from Veggie Tales. The next few days the kids talked with Jimmy and Enoch wanted to sleep with him which of course I didn't alow.

Today I was in the kitchen chopping up the squash to make lunch for Ethne. Ezra came in and said:


Ezra: "Mom, what are you doing?"

ME: Making baby food.

Ezra: "Are you making baby FOOD out of JIMMY?"

ME: Yes!

Ezra: "Oh poor Jimmy. I feel sorry for Jimmy having to be baby food."

ME: Oh, do you think he will mind?

Ezra: "No!"


Enoch comes in and says:

"Hey is that Cheese?"

ME: Why don't you take a bite and find out?

Enoch: Eats a bite and smiles "That is Jimmy. Are you going to eat Jimmy?"

ME: I am making babyfood.

Enoch: "Is Esne [Ethne] going to eat Jimmy?"

ME: Yes!

Enoch: "Oh, well he won't be able to be in the shows any more."
