"Hey, Mommy..."

Seth, age 6: "Hey, Mommy, what did we do the last Saturday before Evan was born. You know, when it was just me... Did we cuddle on the couch and go to the park and have lots of tickle fights?"

Me: "Well, not exactly. I had told a friend I'd get her some fresh strawberries, so we went to the Farmer's Market. It was really crowded, and you hated it and cried to leave the whole time. And then we went home, and we discovered that Daddy didn't have the house key on his key chain, so we were locked out. So you played in the backyard for an hour, and you got a little happier, and then we paid $100 to get back in our house. And then Mommy was mad about how the day was not going as planned, and she had to apologize to you and Daddy for having a bad attitude that Jesus doesn't like..."

Seth: "Oh..."
