Being a Man

Lately, Gavin has taken to declaring he is a man. I'm not sure what brought this on or why he doesn't just say he's a big boy. But no...He is a MAN. and it's so funny how he says it too. He gets the big smile on his face and says " I am your MAN." I asked him the other day if he was my buddy while we were roughousing. He said, "No mommy. I not your buddy, I am your MAN." Whenever Landan and Gavin play together they play some sort of superhero/kung foo/avatar (the cartoon one) game. Landan is usually the main fighter and Gavin is a MAN. I can't wait to find out what happens when he turns 18. Will that make him a little boy?
