Random moments by Cooper...

I love the things kids say. Cooper has some funny moments and some tender moments. Here are some from lately.

Cooper has found the little army guys at Grandma's and is playing intensely with them all over the house with their tanks and trucks. As I listen, he has two guys fighting and then thows one in the cabinet and shuts the door and turns to me and says, "Hey Mom, look! He ran away like a little girl!" (someone has been hanging out with daddy a little too much!) :)

on the tender side...

Sunday was Kate's birthday. We were on our way home from St. George and Cooper fell asleep. We hadn't really said anything to him abot her birthday yet and then he ended up sleeping through going to the grave. Later that night while Coop was in the bathtub playing, he started to sing the Happy Birthday song. I asked, "Who you singing to, Coop?" He looked at me and said, "Katie". How precious is that!

While in the car, every once in awhile I will notice that he is talking to someone. I will ask him who and the answer goes something like this..
Cooper: "my friend"
Me: "Oh? Who's your friend? Is it a boy or girl?"
Cooper: "a girl"
Me: "A girl? What is her name?"
Cooper: He used to say her name was Cooper, but this last time her name is Katie. I think maybe he got that her name was Cooper cause that is what she calls him.
How sweet is that! I mean, I have always known that the veil is thin, but I love that they are friends and have conversations all the time. I wonder what she says to him? And what he says to her.
He says the funniest things lately and I need to write them more so I remember, cause I forget so quickly.
