Happy Birthday, David!
Today is David’s 36th birthday.
Driving home from school, Elijah and Joshua were talking in the back seat as usual. They started talking about grades in school and how when Elijah is in 4th grade, Joshua will be in 2nd grade and so on. They went on through middle school and high school.
Joshua said, “12th grade is the last grade.”
I replied, “And then you go to college.”
Joshua then said in the sweetest, most sincere voice, “You go to college, then you get married, then you get a baby, and then you live happily ever after.”
I hope he’s learning from example.
