I Will Never be Bowen

The other night Bowen and I were eating dinner and he informed me after a couple of bites that he was done. This is not unusual, and of course, I know when bedtime rolls around, he will complain of being hungry. So I said to Bowen, "If I were you, I would eat a little bit more, because this is all you are going to get to eat before bed." His reply was, "Oh, Mom, you're never going to be me." How silly of me to say such an absurd thing!!

A Little Naughty Every Day

Well, it has been an interesting holiday season this year. Things certainly did not go as I would have planned, and I'm very slow posting anything about Christmas. Even when things going on in life seem quite serious, Bowen always keeps us laughing. We made it through Christmas and Bowen said a funny thing to Justin afterwards, "How come Santa still came when a was a little bit bad every day?" I can't remember what Justin's explanation was but in my head I was thinking that I'm a little bit bad everyday, too! Some days I'm more that a little bit bad, especially lately. Then when his cousin Emma came over the other day he told her, "I want to show you want Santa brought me even though I was a little naughty every day." What this says about me as a parent, I'm not sure I want to know, but I think I'm doing the best I can, I hope . . .
