Oh - My Colton Boy!

Colton can just be so sweet, cute and thoughtful. This week, when we were at Target, he saw some dog stickers that he really wanted and even pointed out to me, "they're on sale". So I agreed to buy them with the contingency that we would take them to Ms. Becky - his speech therapist. So, the next day, he took them to speech, but convinced Ms. Becky, that all the kids could have one sticker, and he could keep the rest. Well, let me tell you, he knows how to work it. When he came out with the stickers and we discussed what all took place, he put one on my shirt and said "now Mom, you see, I'm going to school today and every time you look at this sticker, you will remember me, and I'm going to wear the same one, and every time I see mine, I will remember how much I love you." How could any mom say no to that. So, we have the dog stickers and mine is still on my shirt and brings a smile to my face every time I see it.

Colton, has also agreed to live with me forever. This morning as we were getting ready for church, he told me, "Mom - I love you so much and want to live forever with you and you forever take care of me, but I still want a dog when I turn 10". Sounds like a pretty reasonable deal to me. Thought about making him sign a contract to this statement to show in about 20 years.
