Thoughts of a 7 yr old

Every once and a while, I will go down to the boys room and just sit and talk to them while they are supposed to be in bed. I don't do it alot, but it's a really fun time to learn alot about the boys. Here are some of the funny conversations we just had. 1) (Carter talking) "Mom, I know why I have to pee as soon as I drink something. (The kid cannot hold his pee for longer than about 15 min after drinking something) When I drink something it goes down the tube to my stomach. Then is swirls in my stomach twice and goes straight through my digestive system (didn't even know he knew that word) and that spot below my weiner, it doesn't hold it at all. It just drops straight into my weiner and I have TO GO!" Then Carson says, "Not me. It goes from my stomach to a holding tank and then the tank releases when we get home and then I have to go right away!" 2) We have made a little tradition of going to Texas Roadhouse when we go to Billings to the temple. Today we went so I was asking if they had fun. Carter tells me, "that steak is really weird. It is really small, but when you cut into it, it must have alot of nutrients, because it filled my stomach really full, really fast. How does it do that mom? (Without pausing for an answer) It must be really good for me!" 3) I went to the temple and Chet took the boys to the park to eat lunch and play (you know you live in Wyoming when 48 degrees was a beautiful day, park worthy!) Carson was climbing the slide from the bottom (a kid favorite for some odd reason, I did it too as a kid!) and tells me, "I just couldn't hold on any longer...so I let go (so matter of fact sounding). Next thing I know, BAM! Faceplant. I got up and asked Dad if I had a black eye, but he said no so I just kept playing. (Like it was no big deal. He has what looks like BAD road rash, first thing I asked about when I got out of the temple and saw him) 4) During our family prayers Carter asked Heavenly Father if we could be better next year and make it to the temple every month (we only made it 10 times this year. 3 hour drive ea way. Then I go in for 2 hours, Chet switches me and goes in for 2 hours, go shopping, go to Texas Roadhouse, and head back home...the whole time they are sitting in the car in their seats. They are AMAZING!) I have already forgotten many more things. I had a million things I wanted to write. They keep me smiling! I love the precious moments I get with them!
