My kids have been glued to The Little Rascals lately.  I usually don’t let them watch anything in the car unless it is educational (Leap Frog, Scripture movies, Chinese), but when I hear belly laugh after belly laugh, I sometimes give in.  And since The Little Rascals is new to Dash, it is especially fun to see him loving it.
But there may be some adverse side effects.
#1.  I was upstairs when I heard Dash getting frustrated with his magnets.  And then I heard, “I hate your stinking guts magnets!”
#2.  I think he sees Darla as cute, which unfortunately introduces “girls” to my sweet three year old.
#3.  When I asked the kids who they want to be from the Little Rascals, Scout said either Spanky or Alfalfa.  Navy said for sure Darla.  And Dash — without hesitation — said he was Butch.  When I asked him why, he said, “Because he is the bad guy!”  Uh oh.
And when he intentionally hurt Pippi yesterday, and I asked, “Why in the world would you do that?”, he responded, “Mom, it is because I am BUTCH!”

Here Butch is with his meanest face.
