Just wanted to post a couple things Carter said that I dont want to forget. This was our conversation yesterday....
C- Can I take my own snack to school today?
M - Sure, why?
C- I just dont feel like our school snacks are healthy and I want to be healthy.
M- Ummm, ok (If you know Carter then you know carbs and sugar are main staples to his diet)-
C- Can we stop by Publix and get some bananas?
M - Sure
Later that afternoon, when I pick him up...
C- (Pouting) Why did you make me take a banana today?
M- I didnt make you, that was your choice
C- Well, today we had cheese balls for snack and thats my favorite and I had to eat that stinkin banana....LOL
Guess his quest to be healthy (have no idea where that came from)backfired on him.
On a more serious note. Tonight when we said our prayers we asked Jesus to bring Joseph home safely from the basketball game he went to and when we were done, Carter started crying and said "What if Jesus doesn't bring daddy home safely?" At that moment I felt my heart sank. He asked me about 3 times and I did not know how to answer him, so I distracted him with a book. My heart truly goes out to single parents of young children.

Yes I was thinking of that the other day how do you tell your kids that a parent isn't ever coming home if something was to happen. It scares me cause my kids would not take it well, and Brady would die cause he loves us both and not only that but when were in the house all together he wants us all int he same room and he wants us all to run errands together so it would be rough. It does break my heart for those who have to do it.
