2/8/11 – As I was tucking Anoo into bed he said (in a sad
voice), “Daddy, everybody left me alone at the table when I was eating my
fruit” to which Lukey replied, “Well, I was dealing with my poo-stinky undees, that’s
why I wasn’t there.” Anoo then said,
“Everyone left me. Lukey left me, Isaac
left me, Mommy left me, and YOU left me Daddy.”
Lukey then said, “Even the little Papoose left you. Well…of COURSE HE left you! If Mommy left you, then he HAS to leave you
too since he’s in Mommy’s belly!”

10/27/13 – I was tucking Anoo into bed and he told me,
“Today Luke the older boys formed the scary monster club and they were trying
to scare me and the other six year olds.
So we formed the six year old club and told them that they couldn’t
scare us anymore. And you know what? When those other boys get older and leave the
six year old club, I’ll just find other six year olds to take their spot. And when those
six year olds grow up, I’ll just find other six years olds to take their
spot, and the cycle of life will just keep going on, except for me, because I’m
always going to stay six years old. I
don’t want to ever grow up, okay Daddy?”
My Sweet, Sweet Anoo.
Before Andrew went to bed tonight he said, "I miss Mr. R. . . If Mr. R were my teacher this year, the year would already be over, because that's how fast the year flew by with him as my teacher". :)
