The Deep, Dark Woods

Both boys have been talking about the deep, dark woods ever since we got the Gruffalo movie for Christmas.  Gabe really wants to take a walk in the deep, dark woods.  I almost took them for a hike the other day, but then the snow arrived.  I'm hoping to take them for a hike in the Lynn Woods soon!

Anyway, the other day when I was putting Zach down for a nap, he said:

"Mom, I no like deep dark woods."

In reply, I told him that we didn't have to go for a hike in the woods if we didn't want to.  Again, he said that he didn't like the deep, dark woods.  When I put him down for bed later that night, he again told me that he didn't like the deep dark woods.  And when he said it again last night and then this afternoon at nap, I finally figured it out!  He's talking about the actual dark and how he doesn't like to be alone in the dark.  Poor bub!!!
