Overheard at Lunch

Well, my latte machine kicked the bucket this morning. Not to be dramatic, but it was a bit hard to get over, and I was grouchy. Not the best of excuses, but its just reality. And the kids were a special breed of fighters today, so it was just a rocky morning. They were pretty cute, though! And yes, they’re back in their fuzzy sleepers. Can’t get enough! Except Dekker, for whatever reason.

This was Dekker’s drawing of what my hair looks like, haha!

Sollys teeth that you’ve been hearing so much about! That last top middle tooth has been working overtime, but hasn’t made an appearance just yet. He’s just going through it, poor boy, but he’s still SO sweet and friendly!!

I got the kids lunch and went to plop down in the living room, to get a break from all of the fighting. And I overheard a super cute conversation between Dekker and Laela that I have to share! Because they’re cute, and I love them, even when they fight. It was a good break for me, and then I had a nice chat on the phone with Brady that added some motivation to my day. Feeling much better now.

Anyway, the convo!!

Laela: Rowan isn’t a baby anymore.
Dekker: He’s a toddler.
Laela: Wait, Rowan is a baby still…
Dekker: Nope, he’s a toddler. A toddler is like, it’s like a baby and a big guy.
Laela: That’s right! I’m a big guy too!
Dekker: That’s right Laela! You’re grown up.
Laela: And baby Solly is a baby.
Dekker: Right. And babies live in jumparoos.

Cute, right?? I know that not everyone finds joy in the things that moms find joy in, but I really thought it was an endearing chat 🙂 It made me smile when I hadn’t done much of that yet today.

Thanks, kids, for doing your best to keep good attitudes, even on hard days. We’ve got this!
