I'm Thinking of...

We started a new game in the car. It started with “I Spy,” but the fact that we were moving faster than some of us could guess necessitated a switch to “I’m Thinking of…” Reed was pretty good at giving clues – “I’m thinking of something lion-y,” but if we guessed too fast, we’d be reprimanded – “Stop arrupting me!” We’ve created a monster, though. Every time we get in the car now, Reed says, “Let’s think of an animal!” Today he was trying to get us to guess an animal that starts with an “h,” is pink and blue and white (and later it morphed to red and black), has slimy skin, is big, and has claws that will get you. Every time we tried to get him to tell us what it was, he’d say, “No! Don’t give up!” Finally, he revealed that it was a lizard. I’m guessing it was the “himaginary lizard.”
