Out of the Mouth of Babes

Spending time with my nieces and nephews always results in one of them saying something that makes me either laugh, cry, or become totally speechless.

Tonight, a 20 second conversation at the dinner table made me do just about all three.

Cosette: Aunt Kristin, do you think a boy will ever love you?

Me (aka Aunt Kristin): Well, *pause, wondering what kind of mean trick God is playing on me. Do all 7 year olds ask questions like this?*

Noah: (interrupting my pause and sounding very 'matter of fact') Cosette! Pappy Shaun loves her! 

Oh. My. Gosh.

Also Eli, who sometimes has trouble remembering what he's supposed to call me, used the following names to get my attention:

Grandma
Grandma Karen
Sunshine (the cat)
Leanna
and the names of two of their cousins, one being a boys name.

Eli: Oh wait, that's not your name! Sorry Sunshine....I mean Aunt Kristin! 

 Seriously love these little people!

Tell them, God has already picked your soulmate boy... because he sure has.

Loved the post with your brother (priceless pics) and I had such a good laugh on the cocoa story.
