On Monday, Andrew and I talked about his birthday party on the way to school. I explained he was going to have two parties, one in Michigan and one here with all of his friends. I asked him where he wanted to have his party here.
He said, "At Miss Michelle's house."
(long pause)
"Or maybe in heaven because that sounds like a really fun place. Jesus is there."
I got a bit teary. Thankful for the heart of a child, yet reserved in thinking of a response.
"Not this year baby...how about Burger King?"
"Why not?"
"Because Jesus has to come and get you first."
"When is he coming to get me?"
"No one knows, it is going to be a surprise but it might not be this year so we have to think of another place to have your party."
"Ooooooo a puh-RIZE! I love puh-RIZES!"
How I love this boy.
