Reflections of a 5-year old...
So Kirk is a deep thinker. If you spend any length of time with him it is easy to tell when those moments "come upon" him. Because he gets quiet. And that is a rare thing. Unless he's sleeping!
Anyway.
The other night I was tucking him in for bed, giving out the usual hugs and kisses. He asked, "Momma, why can't I just always kiss you on the lips?"
"Because my lips are for Daddy. You can kiss my cheek, nose, or any other part of my face."
---Long pause. Quiet pause---
"So, Momma, when I grow up do I get to kiss Daddy on the lips?"
"No, sweetie. When you grow up, you get to kiss your wife on the lips."
"OH!"

"Well, you and Daddy will help me find a wife, right?"
"That's right."
"Well, she will be beautiful. And love Jesus. And she has to wear lipstick."
And there you have it- the sum of all things important for a future wife!!

Hi, Suburban Housewife! This post made me laugh out loud. Kirk is definitely thinking things through isn't he? I can't believe he's five. I have him freeze-framed in my mind at three.
By the way, thanks for the blog recommendation. I found it very funny.
