Today Jonah told me that his long-time imaginary friend, Danes, was, in fact, "brown." I'll admit. . .I was a bit surprised. Not because he's black. But because, for a couple of years now, Jonah's been blaming every shady thing he does on the elusive Danes. I kinda pictured him looking like this:
I guess I ought to mention that he was watching a preview for the new Eddie Murphy movie at the time (looks like a gem!). Incidentally, Danes' favorite color is black, and his favorite shape is a square. For some reason, Jonah thinks a favorite shape is super important. It has made me think a lot about my favorite shape. I'm thinking a circle. . .for car wheels and pizza and doughnuts, etc. But I do like a clean modern line (square?). Hmm. . .I guess it IS super important!
Also, if you get the time, pop on over to this blog, where Josh's sister shares her experiences with some very special people. It kills me.

Your car is in the shape of a circle?!
Dane sounds like a fun guy.
That is hilarious! We haven't had any imaginary friends in our house yet. How does Jonah's buddy Dane have such a hip and trendy name? Makes me think you hve a little trendsetter on your hands.
It's actually "Danes". That wasn't just a typo. I don't know if that makes him hip. But I wouldn't be entirely surprised to find it extremely popular in a couple of years. You know how people love the made-up names!
Danes is actually even cooler than Dane.
I love that he just one day came out and told you that Danes was 'brown'...too funny. How many boys are frightened that witches live in the woods and insist that any imaginary friend must have a favorite shape? Jonah is great!
