Family Reunion

It made sense to me

Soren wanted a snack so I gave him some goldfish and H2O.
A short time later I looked over and saw a bunch of soggy goldfish floating in his glass. I've been trying to teach him not to play with his food so I asked, "Why did you do that?" He replied, "The fishes wanted to swim in the water." It was so cute and logical that I couldn't be upset.

For Better or For Worse

Jared and I have been going through a lot lately. Our relationship has been an emotional roller coaster for both of us. On one of our better days, Jared and I were being affectionate with one another when Soren came up and began a conversation with Jared. It went like this:

Soren: "You love mommy, daddy?"
Jared: "Yes. I love your mom."
Soren: "Are you getting married?"
Jared: "We already got married a long time ago and then
we had you and Ander."
Soren: "Oh."

Soren seemed happy with the answer. He put his arms around our legs and, with a big smile on his face, hugged us.
