What Makes Me Happy

So do you want to know what made me happy this week?

Nathan colored a picture INSIDE THE LINES! I know your all thinking "so what" He's 3 almost 4. What almost 4 year old colors almost perfectly inside the lines and chooses a different color for each pedal of the flower? I almost cried.... I thought when the heck did he get to be so old?

Then when his big sisters saw the picture they told him what a good job he did. They said things like "way to go Nathan" "that picture looks so pretty". How nice was that?

I know it's just alittle thing to you.... but to me.... it made me happy...in a bittersweet my baby is growing up kinda way.

Randomness

So awhile ago we were eating super and as usual everyone finished eating except the younger three. We all leave the table and next thing I know Payton and Clayton are done eating.

me: how did you finish so fast?

Payton: well I threw it in the garbage

me: why did you do that?

Payton: Clayton did so I did too

me: well no snack for you tonight then

Payton walks up to Clayton and says: why did you throw your supper out? it gave me ideas and I followed you, now I get no snack!

Dustin and I laughed so hard....
