The boys have a little framed picture of me and their dad on their dresser. C brings it in to me today.
"Mommy...I'm so glad to have this picture of you and Daddy."
I'm thinking, "how sweet."
He continues, "When I have babies you will be really old, (pause) and you will probably die (pause) before they are kids, you know (pause) and then I can show them this picture and say, this is a picture of your Nana, she lives in Heaven because she died."
I'm thinking, "!!!"
I say, "Do you think so? I guess we'll see. " and he trots off so happy with himself and his little plan and I'm left in the middle of a mid-life crisis, slapped in the face with my mortality and the possibility of not meeting my grandchildren. At least he says I'll be in Heaven...

I just laughed so hard, I had to read it to my mom and dad. They got a kick out of it too! Kids really do say the darndest things :)
What a goof ball! My kids aren't allowed to think I'll die. I keep reminding them that I fully intend to be crazy stalker grandma that never leaves them alone and they keep saying, "my wife might not like that. I might live really far away." I say, "No, you won't. I'm building a garage apartment or a basement apartment (take your pick)so that I can stalk you more easily."
I love that...I can't even imagine you as a nana...you are already the BEST, coolest, mom ever.
I am cracking up!!!
The things these kids come up with... This one is good. Hilarious.
THE DIALOG!!!! I can't get over your boys~ I LOVE the things that come out of their mouths. They are so stinkin cute and so clever~ Good grief the thought process is still killing me! P.S. Good job on the getting to heaven thing!
So is this the kind of mid-life crisis that involves tanning beds and a ferrari? Piercings and a motorcycle?
Or maybe just a couple of liters of Diet Coke...
That story is a keeper! To be told at his wedding...for sure!
LOL. oh my gosh. well.
That is so cute. I love how kids grab out feet and yank us back to earth. There is no way to have a big head as mother, you just might loose it to a 5 year old.
You have been a very busy blogger lately. I have not even gotten on my computer for two weeks, so I have missed a lot! Looks like lots of fun.
Oh my goodness!! LOL Sometimes it's really hard to know how to react, huh?!
That s so funny. I love your boys. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for all the fun ideas and posts!
