Tristan at 4 and Jason at 3here are 10 conversations between me and my little ones...conversations that tell me they're little no more....
1. Tristan: "Mom, i need new briefs, the ones i have are all tight now."
Me: "Really?" (as if I don't have a clue he has grown already!)
2. Jason: "Mommy look, I didn't have to fold my pants!" (with a smile on his face!)
Me: "Amazing!" (with a sigh of relief that he is finally growing!)
3. Me: "We're going to the grocery, who wants to come?"
Tristan and Jason: (no answer, both silent!)
4. Me: "Hey look, aren't these shirts nice"
Jason: "Mommy can you please stop buying the same shirt all the time?"
5. Tristan: "Can we go out today?"
Me: "Do you want to watch a movie?"
Jason: "No, can we go shopping?"
6. Jason: "Kuya, check that out!"
Me: "Oh that's a nice car!"
Tristan: "No mom, he meant the girls!"
7. Tristan: "Mom can I ask you something?"
Me: "Sure!"
Tristan: "When am I allowed to have a girlfriend?"
Me: "Never!"
Tristan: "I'm serious mom."
Me: "And I'm serious too!"
8. Jason: "Mommy watch this commercial quick!"
Me: "Why, do you like that snack?"
Jason: "Not the snack mommy! I like the pants and the shirt that guy is wearing."
9. Me: "Do you want a happy meal? It has a batman toy in it!"
Tristan and Jason: (stares at me sharply and walks away!")
and finally...this last one made my heart say, you have to let them go and spread their wings, they're little no more....
10. Me: "Jason be careful, don't run it's slippery!"
Tristan: "Don't worry mom, I got his back!"
