It occurred to me today that since Landri turns one in a week(heartbreaking....) that she could probably have milk. She is still nursing, getting plenty of the 'good' stuff, and I only stock 2% milk....I figured a bottle of it would be fine. She LOVED it! She snuggled in and held it herself....and Eli wanted in on the action. So, he climbed up on my lap and we had like 5 WHOLE MINUTES of peace...the kind of peaceful moment where you think you might be doing something right....the kind of moment where you relish the fact that you stay home to enjoy this kind of moment! It was awesome!
Then Eli asked, "Mommy, where'd I get the bones in my head?"
Me: From Heavenly Father.
Eli: When?
Me:Well, when you came to earth to get a body...you got bones. And the bones in your head protect your brain.
Eli:(sat there soaking this in for a minute) So, mom...do I have people in my head?
Me: Uh...No!
Eli:Not even the tiny people, you know...
in my brain?
Oh my sweet boy. Your trouble is that too often someone is sitting on your shoulder....not in your brain!
As a personal victory kinda sidenote: Eli has been TENDER beyond words lately. He always has been tender...but he's offered more sloppy kisses and huges lately...more unsolicited 'I love you momma's.... I'm wishfully thinking its a change in course instead of the eye of the storm...
