Mother's Day

Luke took Kaden shopping for a Mother's Day gift this evening after dinner. I wondered how he was going to keep whatever it was from slipping out of Kaden's mouth. He's not the secret type. Or the quiet type. OR the forgetful type. I gave him 30 seconds to ruin the surprise...

Sure enough he walks in the door and announces, "Mommy, Daddy bought you a present!" (He was very excited.) Luke asks him to tell me what the present was for and, since we are just coming off Kate's birthday, he couldn't remember what they had rehearsed the whole way home and said "For your BIRTHDAY!" I asked him if it was a secret he wasn't supposed to tell. He said yes. Then promptly announced that he had gotten me a necklace. He was proud. And it had been about 30 seconds...

I laughed so hard. SO SO hard.

Also, after he got the secret off his chest, for the rest of the night he talked about Mother's Day. That secret just had his brain in knots.
