Talking about his upcoming birthday next week, he asked me, “Mommy, how old are you?”
I said I’m almost 38!
He asked, “Will I be 38 when I’m that tall?” Then he asked how old Daddy is,
“He’s 41.”
More processing… then, “When I’m 65, how old will you be?”
“I’ll be almost 97!!” Wondering in my mind if I’ll actually still be around to see him as a 65 year old man. “Mommy, when I’m 10, then I”ll be 11.” “Yes, that’s right!” Then… “When I’m 11, you’ll be 14.”
I wish! “Then we would be friends and I wouldn’t be your mommy.”
“When I’m 11, you can be 10 and Daddy can be 14.”
Sounds good to me!
Age, it’s all in attitude anyways right?
