Mommy Magic

I have so much to post but I wanted to add this while it was fresh in my memory.

The other day, while I was getting Sawyer ready for his nap, he kicked this framed picture we have hanging over his dresser. It slide sideways quickly and made me gasp out of fear it was going to fall on him. I said, "Honey, don't do that. If it falls on you you will break!"
"I will break Mama? Then you can get a new Sawyer."
"I can't get a new Saywer! There is only one Sawyer in the whole wide world!!"
"How come, Mama? How come there is only one Sawyer in the whole wide world?"
"Because Mama made you special in her tummy, just like I made Owen in my tummy. There are no other little boys in the whole world made there."
"You made me in your tummy like Owen?"
"Sure did."
"Did you use a screwdriver?"

At this point I tried to remain as serious as the conversation but I am sure my amusement was written all over my face. I replied,"No Baby. I didn't use a screwdriver. I used special mommy magic that ONLY mommies have. You, my love, were made with magic."

He was happy with my answer and quickly started talking about the "magic" paper towel dispensers at the store restrooms. My sweet boy.
