I Just Love the Way Their Minds Work

Parker: (while getting dressed pointing to his chest - I'm such a prude about naming body parts) These are good on boys but not on girls huh mom?

Mom: Umm what makes you say that?

Parker: Lexi told me.

Mom: Well they are good on girls too hon. That is how mommies feed their babies right?

Parker: Oh yeah. Man mom you are so smart! It's acause you went to college huh. I'm gonna go to college too so I can get as smart as you.



Man I love my kids! I remember the first time Alexia told me I was the smartest person in the world. We were at a stop light and she asked me how I knew the light was going to turn green. I told her that she should look at the other lights and watch them go from green to yellow to red and then our light would turn green. "Wow mom, you are the smartest person in the world! How come you know everything? When I'm a mom, will I know everything?" I assured her that she absolutely would.



Now since I am in brag mode let me share something with you. During February I put out a little Valentine basket and we fill it with love notes to each other and we read them at the end of the month. Alexia was the first to put one in. I know I shouldn't have read it yet but I couldn't help myself.






It reads:

I love you so much Mom. You are the best and only mom I could ever have. are you sher you said to me in heven can I be your mom. Is it true? How do you know what pepole are doing when you are not looking. It is so good that I am your dater!

Love, Alexia

How could that not make you smile? Seriously...I LOVE MY KIDS!
