Boys and their Toys!!

What is it with boys and guns? I have been very wary about getting Jace any toy guns to play with. I was not raised around guns so I am scared to death of them. Well just because Jace didn't have any toy guns didn't mean he didn't play with them. One of the first things he made with his giant lego's was a gun and of course every stick shaped object turns in to a gun too.

I finally gave in and bought Jace a little cap gun a couple of weeks ago, while Luis was in Mexico, because he is going to be a cowboy for Halloween. I gave him strict rules about the gun, he can not point it or shoot at anything that is living - just toys etc. Well of course this became his favorite toy that he wanted to take everywhere. He asked several times to take it places when we go out and I would just tell him absolutely not!!

When Luis came home from Mexico he took Jace to school in the morning and Jace proceeded to tell Luis about his gun and that mommy said "absolutely not can he take his gun to school." Luis called me right away to tell me what Jace told him because he thought it was so funny.
