A few weeks ago we were attending a birthday party of one of his friends. Kellen and said friend's sister started running around and had loads of fun. Kellen just turned 5 and t is 8 years old.
On our way home we had the following conversation:
him: mommy, can we go visit t at her house?
me: yes we can.
silence.... after a short while...
him: mommy, when we go, i want to put on a jean and a 'cool shirt'.
me: you can do that.
silence....
him: mommy, i think t will like a pink shirt.
me: yes, i think so too...
in the meantime, i'm bursting with joy (and giggles)... the sweetness of my little boy...
on monday we got home and he asked if he could make a card for t. (he gets that from me, because we are regularly making cards for people we care for). i gave him some card and pens and told him to cut out some pictures from a magazine. he said: 'no mommy, i want to punch butterflies and paste some of your flowers'. :-0) he then drew a picture of them playing in a field and t is picking flowers... (be still my heart*)
on tuesday he gave t the card and her mom told me that it was the first thing she told her when she picked her up and that t said she is going to put it up in her room. she also said that t's friend, m, asked why she did not get a card.
on wednesday, when we were in the shop, kellen asked me if he can buy t a gift. (how can i not say yes?) he chose a little diary that can lock..hehee... and bought one for m too...
“In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.” Kahlil Gibran
