Mini Man

My older boys call our youngest "mini man." And he is the one who makes us all laugh ... or cry, or scream ... Ok, so yesterday I was talking to my mom on the phone in the car. I hang up and he says, "Mom, are grandma and grandpa old?" I reply, "Well, yes, but not that old. They are in their sixties and should live another 30-40 years." He says: "But mom, are they going to die?" I reply, "Yes, sweetie, everyone dies." He then puts on his face, much like this picture, that face that only he can do, and he says, "But mom! Then I won't have them anymore! I will be sad and miss them."

Yes, sweetie ... that is life. If only they weren't so smart at age four!
