Pat and I are so blessed to have the chance to have so many little kids that we love in our lives. One of the best things we get to do is to babysit for our little friends Ethan and Kaleb while their parents are at therapy. We love taking them out for ice cream before we take them home to put them to bed.
The other day I was talking to their mom and she told me about a conversation she had with Ethan. Ethan had asked his mom why we didn't have kids. As a sidenote, we get asked this a lot by our friends who are children. And we always tell them that we will someday have some but in the meantime it means that we get to spoil them and love them like they are our own. Bonnie said something to Ethan that was along the same lines and then he started to cry.
When she asked him why he was crying, he said that he didn't want us to ever have kids because then we wouldn't love him anymore. I just have to say to Ethan and to all of our little friends and neices and nephews that we will always love you and we are so glad to have you in our lives. We are very blessed to have so many friends with children that we love.
