The balloon fiasco

I know everyone likes to brag on their kids, but this is a really cute story and I just have to share!

We were given balloons at therapy today because Children's Theater was there and Peanut totally had a fit about taking the balloons. I couldn't understand why he didn't want the balloons. On the way out to the car I realized why he didn't want them when he kept telling me "Hold on balloons Momma, hold on" and he kept watching them very closely. It finally clicked that he was scared that we were going to loose the balloons like we did after a birthday party in December. (Talk about memory, WOW!) He was ok once we got the balloons in the car. Well Sweet Pea let go of one as we were getting out of the car at home and it was gone. Peanut lost it and began to scream and yell for the balloon. He even took the other balloon himself into the house and hid it safely in his closet so it wouldn't fly off. As he is screaming I told him it was ok for the balloon to fly up in the sky and that we were giving it to Jesus. He seemed ok with that answer and when his brother said "balloon" he responded with " It ok, Sweet Pea we give it to Jesus"

Is your heart melting or what?! How cool is that!
I guess I've done something right if he wants to give his balloon to Jesus

What a very sweet story...

I get a little vision of Jesus looking down on Peanut and Sweet Pea, holding his balloon and saying, "Thanks guys."
