Riding down the road in a 35mph zone.
Eli: Mama, go faster.
Mama: I can’t go faster. It’s not safe and I don’t want anything to happen to you boys
Eli: Nothing will happen to me, I’m tough.
Mama: Well, something could happen if I was speeding, so Mama is extra careful when you boys are in the car.
Eli: If a car hit us, I would be ok.
At this point, we are pulling into our parking lot. Eli is quiet for a few moments.
Eli: Mama, if something happened to you, daddy, and Caleb, I would be all alone. Huh, I started crying when I said that.
Big tears are coming down his face as the gravity of that hits him.
Amazing how little ones can feel that kind of raw real emotion, love you Eli.
ReplyDeleteTruly Amazing. He is a very emotional kid.
