It hit me like a ton of bricks the other night that in 9 short months my baby will start Kindergarten!! He got up in the middle of the night to get in our bed, which he hardly does, and when I asked him why he was in my room he said, "I just wanted to sleep with you" (in his sweetest little voice). Of course I said yes, and as he was lying there beside me, breathing his morning breath in my face, I started thinking of how he is going to start school soon and that made me really sad. The process of letting go, even if it's just a little, is about to begin. I told him the other day that he was going to have to start going to bed without his TV on because when he started school he couldn't do that and he turned to me and said, "It's not tomorrow, Mom!"
Anyway, I got this idea from Amanda at Baby Bangs, only mine is an abbreviated interview with my T:
1. What is something that Mommy always says to you?
T: Clean my room.
2. What makes Mommy happy?
T: When I'm good.
3. How does Mommy make you laugh?
T: tell me knock-knock jokes!
4. How old is Mommy?
T: I don't know, 8?
5. What is Mommy's favorite thing to do?
T: Clean the house
6. What is Mommy good at?
T: Cleaning the house!
7. What is Mommy not good at?
T: driving the 4-wheeler like Daddy.
8. What is Mommy's favorite food?
T: Spaghetti and Chili
9. What makes you proud of Mommy?
T: making my bed
10. What do you and Mommy do together?
T: Go to the Library and get books
11. Where is Mommy's favorite place to go?
T: Nanny's house
His answers cracked me up!! I guess maybe I'm a little OCD on the cleaning....you'd think my house would be the cleanest house on Earth!! And how sweet it is to know that I'm 8 years old, but I guess that seems old to him :) And as much as I love going to visit my Mom (Nanny), that is more than likely HIS favorite place to go!
Oh how I plan to cherish these next nine months!
