My name is Meteor

Before I was a parent, I probably never would have thought that one day a show called “Meteor and the Mighty Monster Trucks” would be playing on my television. But here we are, and my children are enraptured by tales of characters named things like Big Wheelie and Junkboy.

It’s really not a bad show. Kind of like Thomas and Cars, cute little monster trucks run around and learn to share and treat each other nicely. Which is really rather ironic if you think about monster trucks as a genre in our culture, but, whatever.

So Neko and Shep get out their big plastic trucks from Target and zoom around the house at rather dangerous speeds and pretend they are the characters. During quiet time, Neko drew this picture and asked that I replace the “N my name is Neko” portion of her door sign with this drawing of Meteor. Which is, I imagine, probably not the aesthetic the original artist was going for. You know, daisies and queens and rainbows and VROOOM MASSIVE MONSTER TRUCKS.
