Secret to Keeping Your Child Young and Cute Forever
I had an amusing chat with my four-year-old the other day.
Me: “Andrew, I like the way you are. Can you not grow up and stay this way all the time?”
He: “I can’t!”
Me: “Why not?”
He: “Because you keep giving me milk to drink so I keep growing.”
[Note: at one point he was not a great milk drinker, and we told him if we wanted to be big like Daddy, he had to drink his milk. This evidently stuck in his mind.]
Me: “Hmmm. . . good point. Can I stop giving you milk so you can stop growing and stay this way forever?”
He: “Yes.”
So folks, there you have it. I’ve divulged the secret to keep your child young and cute forever. Just stop giving them milk.

But it’s not too late for the rest of you! No more milk = no empty nest!
That is too cute Lois. I frequently tell LeighAnna that she will always be my baby even when she’s all grown up. To this she replies, “When I grow up I’ll have my own baby and then get married.” To this I always reply, “yes dear, but not in that order.”
Oh my goodness, is that it? And I keep trying to get my kids to drink their milk, too. What’s wrong with me??!!
