A mind of its own

Lately Nathan's tummy has been telling him lots of things.  At first he would just tell me that his tummy was telling him that he was hungry.  That seemed to make sense.  Now, however, it seems his stomach has developed a mind of its own since at least once a day he tells me that his tummy told him that he does/does not want to do something.  For example, "My tummy is telling me that I want to go to the mall!"  or "My tummy is telling me that I need you to read me a story right now!" or "My tummy is not telling me that I want dinner."  Now I know I've asked him if his tummy is feeling hungry, but I have never asked him if his tummy feels like going shopping.

That kid is funny. I'm sure he has learned that the tummy gets what it wants.

I wish my kids tummies would tell them that they want to go to the mall.
