Issy's Obsession with Mike and his Corvette

So as I have posted before Issy has become a little attached to our friend Mike. Which he owns a yellow corvette. Now of course this car stands out on its own. But imagine if you were a little girl. This car stands out even more. All of us adults know that there is more than one vette ever made. But to Issy she sees a yellow vette..She thinks Mike!

Well we have a yellow vette that lives up the street. It just so happens that everyday when we walk down to get Chelsey from school, this vette is going up the street. So everyday Issy says Hi mike when the car passes by. Which is fine. Until she realizes that "Mike" isn't stopping or even saying Hi back. She now has began to throw fits about it. So today took an interesting twist. She saw the vette coming up. She started saying "Hi Mike" and then as it got closer and wasn't stopping she began to Yell STOP MIKE, STOP. With her hand stretched out to say stop as well. She then began to SCREAM very loudly and stomp her feet. By this time i am telling her its not mike..yet again. Just as it passes it makes a U-turn and comes back. The car pulls over, and I am panicking a little bit. I keep walking the girls toward the school. When the guy gets out and says Wait..I am very curious. He then begins to explain that he sees Issy's tamtrum everyday and everyday he wonders why. Because he notices it starts as he passes and then ends when he has gone up the road. So I explain to him that our friend has the same car and that she thinks that he is Mike. Which makes her sad when Mike doesn't wave or stop to say Hi. The guy laughed with me and said..Poor girl. Told me he would wave Hi for now on to make life a little easier on me and Issy..lol

But of course as she sees this guy get out of the car and talk to us, she realizes that he doesn't look like Mike. This was her response " No Mike.. shrugs her shoulders and walks off. So now it is a test to see if she remembers this..or if the yellow vette will always represent MIKE.
