So I'll never forget the things they said that brought a smile to my face, a tear to my eye, joy to my heart, and laughter to the room.

Thunder in Your Eyes

Jonathan (3 years)

This afternoon, while reading a story to the boys, Jonathan stopped me and said, "Mommy, you have thunder in your eyes!" When I asked for some clarification he drew lightning bolts in the air with his fingers. So I said, "Oh, you mean the streaks of blue and green?" and he said, "No Mommy, it's 'wed' (red) thunder...in the white part!"

HA! Yes, that observant little chap was noticing his mother's bloodshot eyes! I didn't sleep well last night and then the garbage man woke the whole house up at 5:30 so in case my little yawns at the end of each paragraph (or sentence!) didn't tip him off to the fact that I was pretty tired, it's good to know that the "thunder" in my eyes might have!
