E-man, E-man, E-man. Waaay too smart for his britches!! He asked me yesterday, “What does pain look like?” How do I answer that?? I think he is a spittin’ image of his dad’s personality. Wade’s mom tells the story of when Wade was a little guy, the doctor asked him what he worries about. His response? “Nuclear war.” Yep. The weight of the world on two tiny shoulders. I have to try and keep open dialogue with Ethan about everything- he needs to get those million thoughts out!!
He is really a sweet guy. We can see his caring nature coming out more and more every day. If he sees someone with an owie, he gets genuinely concerned. He will even pat my leg and say, ‘It will be okay, mom. Jesus will fix it.’ after I stub my toe.
He has many questions about Jesus and Heaven. I know four is a bit young, but I think he is such a thinker that for him, it was perfect timing to explain to him that inviting Jesus into your heart is the most important thing in this life. So, last night, after twenty questions about Heaven, I prayed with him so he could have a relationship with Jesus and go to heaven to see Him someday. What a precious time.
On the way home from karate, he asked, “Is our whole family going to heaven?” And I told him yes, because I have Jesus in my heart, and so does Daddy. Then Emri pipes in, “Jeesee in me howt too. And in me tummy.” Classic.
The other morning I slept in, got up to find Ethan watching a movie he had put on himself, eating a snack he had gotten. He was like, “Oh, hey, mom.” Did he turn 13 overnight or what?? Craziness!!
Here is the E-man: And yes, he is wearing Crew's pants. Hilarious.
