Meet a Hoo

So this is one of those things that we have to catalog here on the blog, because one day we expect to look back on it as a big phase in Josie's life. And while there are certainly times when the Hoo-talk and Hoo-play drives us absolutely nuts, it's a big part of her imaginative development and so we embrace it (in all its craziness).
The Hoo is a magical creature (or totally real creature depending on who you ask) that was created on the playgrounds of Josie's school. I'm telling you there has never been an anthropological study deeper and more complex than that of the Hoos by this group of kids. So, here's a little sampling of what it's like living in the presence of such a creature- in all its, umm... splendor.
