Out of the Mouths of Babes

It is true that kids say the darndest things! Last night we were eating dinner and James got home a little bit later than us. After saying hi to everyone, he says he is going to go take a shower while we are eating. Well, we are currently sprucing up the living area of our house so the vent covers to the air conditioner are off. Nathan watches James walk up the stairs, looks at the ceiling and the gaping hole where the vent cover usually is...he looks at me and says, "Mommy, is the water gonna pour out that hole?" It was so adorable, I tried very hard not to laugh while I explained to him how pipes work and where the water goes from the bathtub and what the vent hole was for.

I forget so easily how young he is, and that he doesn't understand how alot of the world works. It is very easy to get caught up in the harried happenings of life, without cherishing all the cute mannerisms of my children while I am raising my children.

You've done a great job Vanessa. I get to stay up-to-date on some of my favorite people even when my health keeps me from visiting your loving home. Ernie
