How now.

grayx3

Through the silver fog today on a drive, Gray asked what kind of animals were out in the field ahead. Those are big brown cows, I tell him.


"OH! I thought that's
where my chocolate rice milk comes from."


Do you ever have those moments as a Mom where you think Oh, my GOD. This is
my child. I am so thankful.

Oh Gray, I wish I had your funky cool moves!

Everyday! I feel like this everyday!

Oh my, he is so precious! I love the way their words can just melt us. I suppose he actually needs to where his hood. My boys insist on it no matter if it is necessary or not. I love it.

This morning Bean said, "I wish it would snow" I--feeling sarcastic and not quite awake--said,
"Well, I wish I had a pony."

Mac said, "WELL, I wish I had a magic pony that MADE snow."

I think the four year old wins.

Oh that's funny. Chocolate rice milk cows, LOL. And now I'm thinking of drinking some--the rice milk not the cows :)

Adorable! Gray is growing up way too fast.

So fun! And yes, I have those moments often - I just stop and stare at my Joy, and think "God, why me? Why am I the one so blessed with this child?"

And then I give her many kisses.

Brianna said...

YES! I feel this all the time. Who am I to be so blessed?

And Grey? He's delightful.

When my sister and I were little, my dad always told us that chocolate milk came from brown and white cows. We believed him for a very long time :) It's so much fun to be a kid :)

Gray is getting SO big!! Time needs to slow down just a smidge....

Corinne said...

He sounds wonderful Steph!

Ashley said...

So funny! I definitely had one of those moments this morning... love it.

Yes. I most certainly do. I've got a few little *Grays* of my own.

I love those moments! Precious! Just simply precious!

Loukia said...

Ahh... so cute. Moments like that are so very precious. I wish I could bottle up all the cute things that come out of my children's mouths. Seriously, I melt someetimes with the things they say!
So cute.

Blessed said...

Definitely!

My little Sugar is saying so many cute things right now... I'm trying to write them all down so I'll have them forever - last night she said "I can't go night-night, night-night is yucky!" I laughed so hard she got to stay up for another half hour :)

Maura said...

I love moments like this!! My son says the craziest and most wonderful things. I love getting a little peek in this world.

Jen @ Rolling Through Looneyville said...

Oh, I love it, I love it!

This is one of the things I think God does so that we won't lose our minds during the crazies. :)

Tara aka "Mama Koala" said...

What a sweetheart! We've been dealing with RSV at our house, but it has caused me to slow down and have many more of those type of moments. I am blessed.

~Mendie~ said...

Classic! That's adorable!

Yep.. Wog with his incredible knack for slapstick silliness and Bug with her almost intolerable high-maintenance-ness... both SO mine!

Brittany at Mommy Words said...

having one now looking at my 12 hour old nursing baby...oh man now
i am tearing up! Gray is great!

Chantel said...

Every single day! My children are my rays of sunshine, so much like me in some ways that I burst with pride but so much their own little people that I am amazed that I had anything at all to do with their creation. Each day is a wonderful adventure and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Bonnie said...

How precious. When my kids say something like that I just want to put it in a box and remember it forever. I'm afraid I won't remember everything but I love it.
