for Noah...

Lauren and Chloe are down visiting Cody's mom and having swim lessons this week. Maybe this will be the year they master it, I think they are so close! So while I lost my two excellent helpers, I do have two less children to chat and listen to. Much more conversation with Noah, I think his little 3 year old brain thinks deeper than mine at times. Today...

(picking up a rock while walking) "Mom, this is a very patient rock, he's so patient, I like him."

"Mom, I need to see what at engine looks like." Boys. I don't get them. Thanks goodness for the internet- I certainly couldn't describe it or find any pictures laying around:)

"Mom, can you swim with sharks?" Yes, little barracudas can be seen while snorkeling in the Florida Keys. Finally something I could respond to. I think this little guy gets overshadowed by two vocal sisters who think out loud a lot. It's been good to get inside his head. Sure do love him.

Enjoy the Honda engine- who knew that's what was under my hood for 6 years- sadly not me!
