Monkey Business

We've been reading the Runaway Bunny at bedtime. For those of you who don't know the story, it's about a bunny who decides to run away and his mother who will do anything to follow him. In the end, they decide to share a carrot and stay together. I think the book sparked this conversation with Sam:

"Would you love me if I was a greenie?" he asked me.

"What's a greenie?"

"A monster from outerspace. He eats bugs."

"Yes, I would love you if you were a greenie."

"Would you love me if I was a big gorilla?"

"Yes, I would."

"Would you make me a cake out of bananas?"
