I have been watching another 3 yr old for about the last month. He is Bobo's age, we'll call him C-boy. They are very alike in so many ways, except one major difference. Getting dirty! Bobo is all about making a mess, loves the mud, very typical boy stuff. C-boy is the complete opposite in this regard. He steers clear from a mess with everything in his being. When we went through the corn maze last month there were some mud puddles along the way. Bobo jumps right in them. He loses a shoe in a mud puddle, because it got stuck down in it, he did the rest of the maze with one shoe on. He told me through the maze how he wanted a bed out of the mud. C-boy stopped at the first puddle, did not have any interest of figuring out a way to get close. I usually had to pick him up and carry him over.

This morning we had cinnamon rolls with melted icing all over them. Bobo of course dives in head first. C-boy staring at him in disbelief, a kind of disgust, almost in a state of shock tells Bobo, "Your going to get messy doing that!" I just died laughing. It didn't stop Bobo either. He just put his head right back in the cinnamon roll and took another bite.
