Gregory spent the night with us on Saturday; when he came out of the bedroom yesterday morning he tenderly cradled a dead lady bug in his softly closed fist. "Nana", he said "you need to call the bug man, I think this lady bug is dead and it needs the spray"! He gave it to me and I placed it on the bathroom vanity, I didn't want to traumatize him by pitching it in the waste basket. I caught him examining it a short time later... "it's still dead" he said, "you need to call the bug man now".
The sweet innocence of his heart, one that believes in a world where life can be restored through a well-placed squirt, is enough to melt my own.
Life is Good!

Oh, so tender!
Oh goodness that's sweet. It's amazing how Thai HS we say and do can be completely misunderstood. Although I can't remember specifics I can remember many times when what I had said was misinterpreted by little ears :)
Sweet:)
OH I wish we had some of that spray!! Darling baby. We could use it in the CCU at the hospital!!
So sweet, wish we could always see things thru their eyes.
So very sweet and innocent. You should send that story to Reader's Digest.
