 I was feeling a little down and couldn't sleep last night. I said a little prayer and just wanted a sign things were going to be ok. I went in to check on the boys snuggled safely in their beds. As I bent down to kiss little Kellan, he turned and got the biggest smile on his face. He must have been having a great dream - probably about tornadoes :) I think, as Grammy always said, "life's going to be ok". 

Kellan calls the washer and dryer 'laundry machines'. I like it!

We've been doing the Walmart pick up quite a bit lately, and it's been great. The other morning we got up and headed straight there for the pick up. Camden was mortified because Kellan was in a t-shirt and skivvies - nothing else. I was just glad he had a smile on his face. He's a happy little guy without a care in the world...

Speaking of that, I was putting the boys to bed the other night. Camden fell asleep as soon as his little head-geared head hit the pillow. Kellan was bouncing all over the place. I was exhausted so trying to calm this little cow down. He grinned from ear to ear and announced. "I just can't stop being happy!" 

Before we got Oscar and Mavey I was talking to the boys about adopting a cat. Kellan got really excited and asked if we could adopt a panda! 

Camden loves his bacon. For a kid that doesn't like chicken (especially when forced to eat it), it surprises me how much he loves other meats. We'll have it once in a while, and he calls it ba-caw-kin. Now, that's what I write it as on my shopping list as well... 

Kellan wrote our mailman a thank you note for continuing to deliver the mail during the pandemic. This was back in April. My heart was bursting and I was so proud. Especially because I'm an 85 year old woman that loves to get mail. As I was praising Kellan, Camden pulled me aside, rolled his eyes and informed me Kellan's teacher made him write this note. Here I was thinking he came up with this on his own...sigh...

Kellan was talking so I answered him. He said, "Mom! I was talking to Camden!" I sheepishly said, 'oh'. Ever my protector, Camden jumped in and cheerily said, "don't worry Mom! You can be in our next conversation!"
