Oh How Observant

Ben has always been quite observant. These binoculars he made at preschool were his favorite toy for a long time. He notices everything and asks about everything. So I shouldn't have been surprised when he came up to me the other day. This is what was said...

BEN: Mama, do you have a baby in your tummy?

ME: No.

BEN: Then why do you look that way?

ME: (speechless)

Some moms (Julie) get darling little notes from their kids. This is what I get from mine. :)

So, I am taking that as a not so subtle hint to hit that treadmill again. Thanks Ben, for the motivation!

Lara, please refer to Jackie's blog and see how her son sees her! It might make you feel better!

Julie, So I looked at Jackie's blog. That makes me feel better. I am glad to see that my son is not the only one who draws his mom twice as big as every other family member. I actually remember hearing that a child will draw the person that gives them the most comfort bigger than everyone else. Maybe that would give Jackie a little comfort as well.

That might mean if he looked at grammie with those binos, he might say are you having twins?

Awwww that was so cute! What a sweet boy right? I can't wait for Jackson to say things like that - I'm just glad he can't talk most the time! You are beautiful Lara!
