They were my sons, Matthew's, and it brought him to my mind while I was on my lunch break, which in turn brought to mind WHY they were there in the first place. As we got ready to go for a walk last night, I was loading the kids and the stroller in the car, and when he was buckled into his seat a pair of underwear were flung up towards the front with a yell "Pee-yoo" which of course made me laugh at my son's antics. I asked him what smelled and his reply was "my underwear mom". Mind you, these were underwear that simply got wet from swimming and had dried in the heat of the car. But to him, the flinging and the yelling were all part of his little personality, which has become more apparent the older he gets.
Matthew is such a boy who loves life, and lives it fully getting into everything and asking questions about whatever he is getting into. And it's my job, as his mom, to teach and train him (and Emma) in the ways of the Lord, so that one day they will learn about that love relationship that our Heavenly Father wants us all to experience with Him. Pretty big responsibility if you ask me. But for now, I am enjoying his little "boyness" and all the scrapes, bumps, snakes, and deer stories for now!
