For F.H.E. tonight we took Ethan to the library to meet Clifford the big red dog (or Wiward) as Ethan calls him.
The random Iowa Public Television guy in a purple T-shirt and yellow cape entertained the kids with some Clifford books and then the big red dog made his big appearance!
Ethan watching for Clifford.
Ethan couldn't wait to meet him, he escaped from us and ran up to see the dog, stepping on all of the other patient children sitting nicely on the floor! Yes, that is his little red head by Clifford's belly.
After another story the kids got to line up to meet Clifford. The line was pretty long so we did a few puzzles with Ethan waiting for our turn. All of a sudden Ethan yelled, "Wiward," sure enough a very wobbly Clifford was being led away from the kids and being held up by 2 librarians. Poor Clifford overheated and about passed out! After getting a drink of water, taking a little break, and moving to a less claustrophobic area of the library - he was ready to meet and greet again. When the librarian informed all of us that Clifford just needed a drink, Clark and I wondered exactly what kind of drink poor Clifford needed!
Ethan literally running up to meet Clifford!
Giving him a big hug. The funniest part was that Ethan just stood there with his arms open wide waiting for Clifford to pick him up for a hug. So Clifford just sat there with his arms open wide, after a long akward moment Clark helped Ethan give a hug.
Ethan was told to stand by Clifford for the picture, and he did...poor Clifford about fell off his stool! We decided Clifford probably doesn't get paid enough!
