Funny Boy

Mr 5 is hilarious. He comes out with the funniest things.

Mr 5: Where's Kevin?
Me: Who?
Mr 5: Kevin?
Me: Who's Kevin?
Mr 5: You know, your Dad? (aka husband)
Me: Ahh, you mean *insert husband's name here*.
Mr 5: Yeah him.
After explaining where my husband was I enquired of him.
Me: So who is Kevin?
Mr 5: He's one of the minions.

My husband had a very similar conversation when asking him why he kept calling him Kevin.

M5 5 at the pool: I can't breathe underwater.

Honestly, this kid cracks me up. He comes out with incredibly random stuff.

He is also a really sweet and generous boy. We took him to spend some birthday money. He was determined to buy a kite. But he also wanted to buy one for his brother. We were very thankful to find one cheap enough that he could buy them both one. He put so much thought into what kind to buy for him. He was also super excited to hand over his money at the check out. He's a complete charmer. Wherever you take him he charms the socks off the people behind the counter. He's got a gorgeous cheeky little grin and is completely unphased about talking to strangers. That's actually kind of a worrying trait, but even still, it's fun to watch.

He started school on Wednesday. Now I'm not entirely sure how that will go for him, but so far he seems to be enjoying it. He wasn't entirely sure about going back on day 2, but settled in once he got there.

The boys have gone home this afternoon. We'll miss them. Home will be calmer, but we'll miss them all the same. I'll try to do some more updates in the coming days of our time together.
