"dragon, no more."

some days he'd still talk about wanting to go see the dragon (it was a giant inflated one at a furniture store parking lot). today, as we passed, we all looked, but it wasn't there. it was a lump of deflated green, half way stuffed through a large doorway. nj looked at me and said, "dragon, no more." i thought for a second he might cry, he looked so sad. i told him dragon's not there anymore, but it's ok. he said, "see dragon another time?" i said sure, we can see the dragon some other time, some other place maybe. and then he moved on to naming all the cars that passed us, "mercedes, toyota, honda, acura, nissan!"
