This morning Justin left to go to Idaho with
my parents. As I was helping him get dressed, he asked me
J: “Mommy, you know that thing
at the airport that they stick your
stuff through?”
Me: “You mean the metal
detector?”
J: “Yeah, what does that thing do?”
Me: “Well it’s to make sure that nobody
brings weapons onto the plane. You know
like guns and knifes”
J: “Oh.”
So that was the end of the conversation. 20 minutes later we go downstairs and he sees his backpack and I tell him that I’ve put a couple of new surprises inside for him to open on the plane. Of course he is super excited about this. He walks off to wash his hands, and gets halfway across the room before turning to me and saying, “ there’s no guns in there right?”
I love this precious little boy. I am sad and proud that he is mature enough to go on this trip without me. He’s growing up way too fast. I am thankful for moments like this when I realize how innocent he is that he thinks that all guns are plastic toys for little boys. I know that he won’t be like this for long, and I treasure these special moments. I love you Justin. Have a wonderful time, and know that I'm missing you every second.

That is so hysterical! We are really enjoying having Justin here! Last night he did break dancing for us. I couldn't quite convince him to do the booty dance, though.
I wish all of you were here, too!

So cute! We can't wait till he gets back so we can play.
Oh goodness, I can't imagine Avery ever getting to that stage. She just seems so little and I can't think of her growing up! Sounds like it would be a fun trip with Grandma and Grandpa!
