A Child's Dream

Here we see the wonderful thought process of a six year old

Mitchell said one day, "I had a dream that I was so thirsty and I got myself a drink in my dream, but when I woke up I was still thirsty."

Days later (after much serious thought I'm sure)....

Mitchell says, "In Heaven, if I had a dream about being thirsty and getting a drink, do you think I would not be thirsty when I woke up?"

Mommy says, "That's a great question Mitchell, I don't know"

Mitchell's reply, "I bet Grandpa knows"

WE'RE IN BIG TROUBLE!!

Well, it finally happened. I knew this day would come, I just didn't expect it so soon. Scott has been warning me for years that when he was young he would come home after school and build himself an enormous sandwich (just for a little snack, of course) and then consume a full dinner just one hour later.

Mitchell came home from school yesterday and said, "Mom, can I have a sandwich?" With my jaw on the floor and my eyes as large a dinner plates, my shocked reply was, "Really?"

With Mitchell at only a mere 6 years old, I started thinking about what life will be like when he's 15 (and brings friends home)!!!!! I guess I will be spending my days at Costco in an effort to keep the fridge stocked!
