We know what he really does all day

The Friday between Christmas and New Years was a day that will live in infamy for a certain 3 year old (and a certain 31 year old, I'm sure) - Clay took Ethan to work with him.  For about a year now Ethan has referred to Clay's office as his "big tall buildings."  This is complete with calling all button-down shirts "big tall building shirts."  Nice.  Anyway, Clay said he only heard one thing on the entire drive there, "Daddy, are we at your big tall buildings now?"  While I'm sure Ethan provided a lot of architectural advice while he was there, he also did a little movie watching, computer game playing, and coloring.  Rachel and I had planned to pick them up at the train station in Dallas and go to lunch, and this was obviously the highlight of the day.


Yesterday Ethan said something about Daddy not being at home because had to go to his big tall buildings.  I asked Ethan if he knew why Daddy had to go to work every day.  His very quick reply was, "Yes, I know why.  Because he has to go ride his trains all day!"  Since I've never actually spent a day at work with Clay, I'm going to have to take Ethan's word for it.
