I love my kids whole heartedly but if I'm being honest, there are times when they try my patience and I may not always like them. But in those moments, it's nice to be able to reflect on cute candid moments that reinforce exactly why I love them so much. Because kids really do say the darndest things. So as always, on this first Friday of 2020, here are 5 special reasons I'm loving my boys this week (Christmas Edition):
1. Carl: Nate, tell your Mom what you did while she was gone. Nate: Mom, I cleaned my room. I straightened and vacuumed and I cleaned the bathroom. Me: Oh wow, really, did Dad tell you to do it? Nate: No, I did it on my own! Me: Oh okay well I need to see this. Nate: Yeah, I cleaned the mirror and wiped the counters, are you proud of me? Me: Yes I am. Nate: Now I'm off the naughty list and Santa HAS to bring me presents. Me: Oh goodness!
2. Nate: Oh wow, the police station has Christmas lights on it! Carl: Yes, a lot! Nate: We should tell them that they did a good job on that, we can call and let them know.
3. Me: J make sure you clean off your bed. J: Okay (as he pulls the comforter off the bed). Me: J you don't have to do that, just clean the clothes and towels. J: But I know what I'm doing mother. Me: Oh okay, do your thing!
4. Nate: Justin, calm down, you don't wanna miss all the Christmas fun tomorrow so calm down, okay!
5. Radio: All I want is a Hippopotamus for Christmas. Me: I have never heard this song before: Carl: Me either. Nate: I have! Me: Of course you have, you've been listenting to 100.3 since Halloween.
