Deep thoughts......

So, most 8 year olds when making a Father's Day card might draw a cute picture and write an "I love you dad" on them to give to their dad, but then I guess our 8 year old is just a little more intense in his thinking.

I had all 4 of the kids making their own Father's Day cards last night.



---Our 7 month old was eating the paper and crayons,

--Our 3 year old was coloring stars and moons on a little yellow card.

----Our 5 year old had a card written "Daddy, You are good at playing games on the computer. You are good at playing Pokemon Sapphire. I know. I like you Daddy." (I thought he did a pretty good job with no promptings from me.)

--But then our 8 year old was working on something, adding stickers, and writing, and he wouldn't let me see. It wasn't until after he left it on the table for his dad, that I went to see what he wrote. It said:

"A caterpillar grows in 2 weeks and lives for a year at most. 1 day of a caterpillar's life is a day when we celebrate our dads. Today is the day and I love you."

Hmmm..........we both thought it was pretty deep.
