He Can't Help It, He's Just Cute!

Josh is three and charming...very charming. He says and does so many cute things. This morning he crawled into bed with me for a snuggle. As we lay there chatting, he said, "You know, Ben is my best friend." Ben is Josh's 5yo brother. Those are the moments which melt mommy hearts. When I mentioned Josh's statement to Ben, Ben said, "But he fights me all the time!" Brotherly love is apparently expressed in wrestles.

This evening the girls were watching a movie with a character in it who was mean to his horse. Josh came over to me and said, "That man is so angry. Why he being mean?" I felt like going over his head with the explanation, so I said something to the effect that the man was choosing to be angry instead of choosing to ask God to make his heart loving. Josh looked at me quizzically. He does quizzical better than anyone I know. His little jaw was dropped at an angle, his brow was furled, his eyes were raised to the side...it was choice. Then he said, sagely, "Oh yeah, loving. I remember loving. I love Mommy and Daddy."

He is just too yummy for words!
