Dawson Stories


After spending a weekend in his rain boots that rubbed against his legs, he was begging me to get "basketball socks."  I just had to laugh because he looked so much like his big brother with a camo shirt, athletic shorts and long neon socks.





This week we went to eat lunch with Carter.  I could not get these two to discuss anything but minecraft!  I tried to change the topic because my understanding is limited, but they were having none of it.  I'm glad they have something they can enjoy together.



Dawson asked if he could run through the field of dandelions outside of school.  I said sure, and when he got halfway down the hill he yelled out "It's dandy down here!"

Recently we had one of those days where he absolutely peppered me with questions.  Here are the ones that I remember:
  • Carter was telling Dawson forcefully that he is not 8, he is 8 and a half.  Later that day he was trying to make sense of this and asked "What does 8 and a half mean?  Is it 8 and one more?"  So I drew some circles for him to help him understand.
  • What does a woodchuck eat?  How many teeth do they have?
  • Mom, what do you love more, your kids or money?  What a crazy question for you to ask.  Of course my kids are more important than money!!!
