Just to keep my perspective on what it's like to have a six year old:
"Mama...if you promise to not tell Papa what it is, I can tell you about the Father's Day gift I made for him. Well, on one side there is a picture of me, and on the other side I wrote Father's Day 2012. Mama, and guess what? This is very special glass from China."
"How do you know it is from China, Caleb?" I asked.
"There is a sticker on it. It says 'Made in China'. This is how I know it's special glass from China." :-)
Oh, and a few miles later...
"Mama...when I grow up, I'm not going to buy a new house. I'm just going to live in the same house we live in now. I don't want a different house. I want to always live at home with Mama and Papa."
And, as I sat smiling, straight from my heart, I was ok with that thought. But.....I do reserve the right to change my mind later. :-)
