We have to go rescue Kimberly's cow!

While I was washing dishes in the kitchen, Nicholas was keeping himself occupied in the living room which is decorated with a western theme. I'm not sure how he reached it but Nicholas managed to get down an old lasso that we have on the fireplace mantle. He started yelling, "Quick! We have to go rescue Kimberly's cow! It's running away!" Kimberly is a 10 year old girl next door that Nicholas loves to play with. And, as far as I know, she does not own a cow! Nicholas ran to the front door and wanted me to let him go lasso this cow. I explained that he couldn't go get the cow because he had taken his pants off and he wasn't going in the front yard in just his Spiderman underwear. He was fine with that answer and started practicing his lasso technique. He has never been taught how to lasso nor can I think of a time that he has even seen a lasso being used but he's was doing a pretty good job with it.

Eventually he had to experiment with lassoing himself!
