I love how simple minded little kids can be. They generallly speak from their heart, or from what they hear from others....
One night Brayden asked if he could go outside and look at the stars. I said sure, and thought that was so cute that he would think of that. He came in a couple minutes later and explained what he did. He said that he wished upon the stars to bring him what he calls his controller game... its a wii game and I can't think of the name of it. Anyway, he said he watched Dora wish on a star and she got her wish.
The next morning he goes outside and sits next to me on the steps and says with a sincere sigh (Mom it didn't work, I wished on the star and I didn't get the game....) Once again he wished on a star that night and the next day Jerry's friend brought it back and he was so eccstatic saying, it worked!!!
He has this thing lately that when he turns 16 he will marry me. It is so cute. I keep trying to tell him that I am married to Daddy but it doesn't make any difference at all to him!!
Ok.. so for his 5th birthday Brayden planned on going Dog training with his Daddy. However when it came time to get ready to leave, he said he didn't want to go... I told him that I needed him to go with Daddy so I can get things done around here. Here is what he said to me( oh, you want me to go with daddy so you can get my birthday done while I am gone.) :) how on earth did that young child think of that?! Then I said yes, I am going to do that. " I want a strawberry cake and backyardigans on my cake...." He has never asked for anything about his cake or how it is decorated, so of course I was going to do my best to fulfill his order. Then he said" When I get home are you guys going to say surprise to me?" Again, what a smart boy!! I packed him a lunch and put it in his bag that i made him and he had it all gone by the time they got to the training grounds just 15 min away!
So my dear friend offered her help and she did the decorating and I cleaned the house and made the cake. It turned out pretty, even though I found out that he doesn't like coolwhip.... We held a party the next day at my sister's and they went swimming while I decorated her house to surprise Brayden.. They all had a great time!! Rae had made a pinata earlier this year and was saving it for Brayden's birthday... oh what fun they had!! Also, it happened to be Spirit Day at school that day so Jerry and Rae sprayed color in their hair for it... what fun!!
