Benjamin and I were in the midst of a pretend phone chat a few minutes ago...I on my cell phone, he on his calculator (LOL). He was holding it next to his ear with his shoulder and playing at his train table...chatting away. When I made the "ring! ring!" sound, he looked at me totally confused. When I started to sing "Fix You" by Coldplay (my ringtone on my phone), he held up his calculator high in the air and announced, "Mommy! Phone!! Mommy's phone!"
So funny. And such a testimony to the times in which we live. That, and how pervasive Coldplay's influence is in this house...:)
Before I forget, another B story from today. My dad was over doing projects with us and was out in the driveway when B and my mom returned from the store. B walked up the driveway and squeeled "Papa! I'm so happy to seeee you!!"
Killed me.
And everything he says lately ends in this high pitched voice...more sweet than annoying. But then again I AM his mom.
Kitchen is coming along really well and transforming right in front of our eyes. So amazing. Love it.
Denise and Paul drive through town on their way back to Chicago from Traverse City tomorrow. Really looking forward to seeing them...always enjoy having them around. They're both so great with the boys, and I really, truly adore both of them. Denise has honestly become someone very special to me and I'm so grateful for that.
Off to play bank with B before he heads off to bed.
