I don't wanna die!

The other day Eli was jumping on the tramp and got hit in the nose. He was so freaked out by the blood that was dripping on to his bare belly that he was hyperventilating. I said, "Eli, you need to settle down so that mommy can clean you up."

In all seriousness, trying to be so brave, he looked up at me and said, "Mom, what's happening to me? Am I going to die?"

I tried no to laugh because clearly that wasn't funny to him, but man, his little face so concerned was about the cutest thing I've ever seen. "No buddy, you are not going to die." "Ok, that's good," he replied. Yeah buddy, that's good.

Jonah: “Kent who?”
Caller: “Kent.”
Jonah: “What do you mean?”
Caller: “Is, ummm, Kent at home?”
Jonah: “I don’t know what you mean.”
Caller: “Hmmmm. Is Kent available?”
Jonah: “Just a second. Hey Mom, do we have a ‘Kent’ that lives her?"
Mom: “Nope Jonah. No Kent that lives here.”
Jonah: “Sorry. I asked my mom, we don’t have a Kent that lives here. Bye.”

That's my boy!
