bedtime thoughts/comments...

when andrew was getting ready for bed he said, 'mom, when do you think i should have a girlfriend?'.

then he added, 'when i get married i want my wife to be nice and sweet and holy'...sounds good to me, i thought to myself.

then he added, 'and i don't want her to think she's all pretty and walk around like this (and does this silly walk imitating a girl who thinks she's great) and think she's the best'...don't think i'll have to worry about him too much - he pretty much covered all the important characteristics of a future wife!  (i'm writing this down so i'll have proof later that he said this! (just in case i need to bring it up when he's a teenager)

so, ella chimed in with, 'i want my husband to be kind and loving and thoughtful....and holy'...it was all so very sweet and so true.

the above picture of andrew is from his first reconciliation last year.  since i never did a post on that special evening here are a couple more pics from it...

andrew with his best friend paul (there couldn't be a nicer kid)

andrew and tessa - have been great friends since kindergarten...will she play a role in the topic of this post later in life??we shall see, only time will tell!
