My Silly and Sweet Son

In the last few days I have had 2 experiences with Will that have made me laugh and cry. The 1st one was on Monday night for FHE we had a movie night and watched Spiderwick, the kids loved it and towards the end it got a little intense. Will was sitting on the floor and during this intense part just blurted out "I don't know if I can do this" the way he said it and just the suddeness of it made James and I laugh so hard! He then came and sat next to me and snuggled and closed his eyes when he felt he needed to. The 2nd experience just happened a few minutes ago, all the kids were in bed and Will came down stairs and said " Mom I don't want you to grow old I will miss you if you do". I asked him why he was thinking about that and again it came from the movie we had watched. I told him it would be a long time before I grew old and he would grow up and be big before that even happened. Then I gave him a hug and a kiss and he got back in bed. Then about 10 minutes later I hear something thru Madalynn's monitor but it was very quiet so I came up to check on the kids. As I came up the stairs I could tell it was Will so I went in his room and he was sobbing that he didn't want to grow up because then I would get old. I pulled him into my room and we sat on the bed and talked and he told me if I grow old then I would die and he would miss me too much. I tried to get him to understand it would be a long time before that happened and we talked how we will always be together as an eternal family(as much as you can explain that to a 5 year old) and that we will have a lot of fun together now and be happy and try not to worry about that. He was smiling by the time we finished and I tucked him back in, it is amazing the things that little kids think about. I am so glad to have him and what a blessing he is in my life, even when he is driving me crazy!
