Zander is eating pancakes and smoothies this a.m. and looks up and says, "I miss Dad".

I said, "He misses you too, you should talk to him when he calls."

He replied, "I miss him THREE times".

I countered, "Wow, Three times."

Zander conclued, "AND I miss Bre and Krista THREE times too. "

From the mouth of babes.

De'Etta,
Zander is just too cute! I always wished I would of written down all the cute things the kids said when they were little. Those are memories that will last forever.

I have 3 main reasons for blogging:

1. Two children have left home and this allows them to have glimpses into the younger ones growing up.

2. My memory is TERRIBLE and I don't remember the cute little things the older ones did....I try to write the mundane normal things kids do that are cute...and that I forget....it's recorded. At this point Zander is at the age where he says whatever enters his mind....in a few years I'm sure it will be Stacia.

3. Can't remember the 3rd reason...hmmmm....what was that that I was supposed to look for that would help with memory...fish oil? LOL

Mike - Mom and Dad - messages relayed.

What a character. I am sorry he won't talk on the phone with either of you.
