Boston. . . .the red sox

last night we were all driving in the car to grandmas and boston said to me, "ALOT of people know about me." and i said, "ya, how does everybody know you." boston said, "mom they turn on their tv and they see boston the red sox and that is me. a lot of people LOVE boston the red sox." laughing so he couldn't see me laughing i said, " i know honey a lot of people do know you but some people don't like the red sox. . . but i am almost positive that they love you (boston.)"
boston said, "mom (saying it as if i am stupid), if people don't like the red sox it is because they like the yankees and i like the yankees because they are like christmas to me."
totally confused at this point at what exactly he was getting at i just said, "honey i am so glad that so many people know you and love you. you keep being a great kid. . .boston the red sox." and he said, "thanks mom." (i am glad that he is still young enough to think he is famous, that he is THE boston red sox, that he can someday fly and that he believes in wizards (that is what he wants to be when he grows up. he truly lives in a fantasy land and i love it!)

the end.

here are a few pics from tball this spring. this was his first year playing and he loved it. they were the white sox.

determined

i am determined to keep this blog/journal updated because life goes by to quickly. in the past 14 months that i have not written so many things have happened and they will all be forgotten because i was to worried about perfection. i have a problem and that is. . .perfection. i didnt care for the way my blog "looked" so i didn't want to write any more posts until i fixed it and i was also worried that my spelling and grammar would be wrong so i also wanted to wait until i went private. well . . . it has been so long since i have written i am sure that this blog is almost private so for those of you who still check back to read about our lives then please know that it wont be PERFECT but it will help me remember the best days of my life!

thanks for reading

"Oh, the funny things kids say"

06-10-08 While running errands Boston shouted from the back seat "Mom, I really have to go potty!" I said, "can you wait just a little bit longer until we get home?" Boston said, "No, I need to go right now!" So we went to the nearest store and ran in to use their bathroom. When he sat down on the toilet he said, "Thanks Mom. . . you saveded my life! I almost pooped in my pants and that is really naughty."
05-08-08 I was putting Boston to bed tonight and I said, "OK, time for prayers" and Boston said, "Mom, I don't want to say my prayers tonight" and I said "Boston Just say what you feel in your heart" and he looked at me so serious and put his hand over his heart and said, "Mom, I dont feel anything on my heart!" I tried not to laugh and then said, " Well then just tell Heavenly Father what your greatful for and he looked at me said, "Just you MOM!" and then gave me a big hug!
04-25-08 Boston discovered somebody to play with last night. We were outside and getting ready to come into the house and Boston said, " Dad can I play with my shadow a little bit longer." We said yes to see what he was going to play with his shadow and he ran toward it clapping his hands saying, " come on, come on, we need to go." I assured him that everyday his shadow would be by him. He finally came in the house to go to bed.
04-10-08 Last night once again Boston got me laughing during his prayers but this time we had to have a talk about what 's OK to say in our prayers and what is respectful! He was in a goofy mood to start with when he went to bed so I should have guessed something like this would come out in his prayers. He said, "Heavenly Father thank you for my teeth (chuckle, chuckle), thank you for my lips (chuckle, chuckle), thank you for my eyes (chuckle, chuckle) and thank you for the chair that I poop on (then he laughs hysterically out loud.) It was all I could do to stop myself from laughing with him.
04-07-08 My mom just had a total knee replacement last week and so Boston has been praying for her to feel better. Today in his prayers he prayed, "Please bless nannie that she can feel better and that Easton can feel better but you don't need to bless me because I'm not sick!" I laughed inside and thought that is a four year olds way of saying, thanks for blessing me with a healthy body.
03-25-08 Last night Luci caught all of us off gaurd. Lately we have been getting mad at Boston for burping without covering his mouth or saying excuse me. Last night for the first time Luci burped really loud and then with a big smile said, "Excuse me!" It was the cutest thing and we could not stop laughing!
03-25-08 Most of the funny things Boston says are in his prayers at night. He is so sincere about what he prays for. Yesterday we were with his cousin Easton who just recently was diagnosed with cancer. After watching them leave the park Boston with a concerned look on his face said, "Mom, poor easton! I hope he can feel better." That night in his prayers he prayed that, "All things that hurt on Eastons body would feel better and that he can drink the medicine that will make him feel better so he can jump high." He is so concerened about his cousin and they are best buds!
