Something About a Boy

This Boy is something SWEET, I'm telling you and just when I think I can't fall harder for him, I DO! Here he is of playing in the snow while all of the girls are Ice skating.
I wanted to post about him for two reasons.
1) All my kids keep asking me what they said or did that was funny, I wish I had better records.
2) I feel Easton coming in to "his own" whatever that really is supposed to mean, but I'm pretty sure he is doing right now, and I really like who is!
3) He said something funny I don't want to forget when he asks me about himself when he was 7.

A few months ago I got Darin French Women Don't Get Fat. He's got a long commute and sometimes I can sneak books in that I want to read and he can read them and report. This was one of those. One of the nuggets he gleaned from the book was that the French SAVOR their food. Well, we LOVE food at our house and love that most of our kids appreciate good food as well. We have try to teach them to savor and enjoy the flavors of the food, savor and enjoy the whole experience. Company included. So for example for FRIDAY FUN, we may get a small container of Haagen Dazs rather than a large container of Breyers. We tell the kids to SAVOR.

Easton came in the laundry room while I was doing laundry. I tried to sabbotage his attempts to put the socks in the basket, because it was mid-morning. He declared, "mom, I have really been savoring these socks for 3 days, I think it's time to change them. I laughed, wanted to remember this moment, and permission granted!
