So as a parent- you know that your kids are yours. You can get all technical if you want describing all the "in's and out's" of how it happened.... but there are times when your kid says something or acts in a certain way that you can stop and say "That is my kid"
On Saturday I was talking with Charlie about the Easter bunny coming and what he thought the bunny might bring:
J: Do you think the easter bunny is going to come and hide the eggs?
C: Yeah and bring good stuff.
J: Good stuff?? Like what?
C: Candy... !?
J: Candy huh... yummm, that would be good.
C: Jelly Beans... I love jelly beans
J: oooo Jelly beans... ya!
C: and Toys...!?
J: Maybe toys.
C: AND RANCH!!?!
Yes thats MY son!
Then Sunday (Easter) comes and the easter bunny did bring Charlie his "favorite"... jelly beans! He was so excited about these. Since they are not something we normally have in the house that is all he wanted to eat all day long. So we get home in the evening and he got to have a snack/treat for being so good- he picked his jelly beans. Mike put a hand full in a container and about 20 min. later he still had a ton in his bowl. At first I thought he didn't like them- so I watched him for awhile and realized that he sucks on them for a few minutes before chewing on them. WHAT? Who does that?? Then my eyes drift over to his father.... Yes that is HIS Son!!!
Just this morning Emmy was sassy and wanted her Chocolate Milk right away. I heard from the other room "You are your mother!!" I smiled!
I love to see us in our kids- the good and the "bad". Even though we know that there isn't much "bad" when it comes to me!! :)
Make lasting memories....
