I was singing a song ( a jingle from one of his silly shows) and Hyrum informed me ( pretty resolutely I might add) that he didn't like that song. I gave him a dejected look to which he said "I'm gonna give you a hug" and came running. After I hugged him I told him that I loved him and said ( which I often do ) "Who does momma love?" Hyrum said "Children"
I was a little surprised by this answer and asked "Which children?"
"Hyrum"
"and..."
"Noah and Daddy"
I said "Hyrum, Daddy is not a child, he's all grown up"
"Daddy is a child of GOD, Mom"
That's right little man...that's right.
Then we sang "I am a child of God" together. I guess he liked that song better. That's good.

So sweet. You make me long for the old days when the kids were little and life was simple and slow paced...

Don't be fooled Nik...life is not slow paced. There are a million demands every second of the day...we just don't GO anywhere. :)

I remember Sun... and I know how it is now and that WAS slow paced :)
