Melinda Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Just had to share this one... Jared (almost 6) has called himself X-Man for probably 6 months now. For example, when he is writing in his journal, he always signs it X-Man. He has never seen the X-Men movies but has seen the commercials, so I figured that is where he picked this up and didn't think anything of it. So he came to me last night and wanted to show me his journal. He has some writing in it, but mostly it is drawings and jokes he wanted to write down. Then we got to like 5 or 6 pages of just math problems and every single one of them had at least one variable in it. I knew he liked algebra (no idea where he learned it, but he loves doing it), but had no clue he was writing equations in his spare time. I asked him what the equations meant and how to solve them and he explained it to me. So then I asked why he had written all these math problems and he said, "Well I *am* X-Man. I love to solve for X!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garga Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I LOVE it when kids get into a role like that. My little guy wore his Superman outfit EVERYWHERE except for church. And then he insisted that the Sunday School teacher call him Clark Kent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donna Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 :lol: So cute. My middle son called himself "Ing" for a month when he was 4yo because he loved the sound of -ing when he was learning to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny_Weatherwax Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I was listening to christian radio via the internet this evening and I thought of you and your ds. Evidently there is going to be a big conference for men/husbands/fathers and X-Man is the part of the theme. I don't remember the exact wording but it made me smile knowing about your x-man.
