I don't know who Mean Guy is or what he represents. What I do know is that I'd better figure it out if I want to understand my youngest daughter.
She started talking about Mean Guy awhile ago. "Me like Mean Guy!"
The last few nights Mean Guy evolved into a night-time (fear?) phenomenon.
As I was putting the girls to bed last night, Elsa told me that the Mean Guy was going to come to her house. Uh oh, the bedtime fears are kicking in! So I started to tell her the only people who would be in her house at night were those who loved her. And I named them, about 50 times - Dada, Mama, Avalon, Lenny, Liz. To no avail. Elsa continued to talk about the Mean Guy coming to her house.
So I switched tacks. "Let's talk about something happy. Avalon, what makes you happy?" (To which she always replies "When my family is all together." Can you say, AWWWWW?!)
Anyhoo, when I asked Elsa what make her happy she replied with a resounding, "When Mean Guy comes to my house!!!"
Ummmmm...
Could Mean Guy be Papa*?
*Mimi and Papa are visiting from Arizona at the end of the month.
