Duck, Duck, Go!

On Saturday we went to Girard Park. Just Drew, Jed and I. It was so great. We took a picnic lunch and found a shady spot by the lake. As we ate our lunches, there was one really ugly persistent duck that kept sneaking up towards our blanket. He wanted our lunch. So, Drew would get up from time to time and chase the duck off - telling him to "Go!". After lunch, as we were walking around the lake, Jed started chasing ducks off too, waving his arm at them and telling them to "Go! Go!". It was very funny. However, now he does it to the cats (funny) and occasionally other kids or adults (not so funny). It's been very interesting to see the attitude he's caught just from this one little event - it looks a bit like disrespect if you ask me. I'm not sure how well he 'respected' in the first place, but he's definitely picked up something that has him looking like he respects even less. I expect that this will pass because, well, something is usually only funny to him for a little while before he forgets and moves on to something else. But it was definitely an eye-opener to how quickly kids pick things up!
