Driving home from school I heard Daxx from the back of the van, Loudly:
DAXX: "Ahhhh! That is COMPLETELY Inappropriate!"
ME: "What's Inappropriate?"
DAXX: "LOOK! That woman's skirt is way too short and That is her
husband!! I can't believe he's letting her wear that skirt so short!"
ME: "You don't think women should show their legs like that?"
DAXX: "She should be embarrassed! I bet her husband is embarrassed!"
She was like, maybe 25 years old and thin. Who knew an 8 year old
would notice such things and have such powerful opinions about it?
Wonder if his mind will change in 4 years? Hmmm...
I've only really talked about
modesty with Jaibrian while picking out swim suits. We get swim shorts
and swim shirts. Apparently he's been listening or watching or
something. I like it. :o)

I just found your blog, actually I found an older version because Daxx was younger. He reminds me so much of one of my boys, I was laughing so much, my husband had to come see. It was the post abt the Soft soap and the bubbles and then the ceiling fan/clothes hanger "art". thanks for letting us peek into your life. going back to read more!
Thank you! I'm glad his antics made you laugh. :o) He is such a blessing to us.
We found out, last year, that some of his "rambunctiousness" is due to a mental illness that was passed down to him by his birth mother. He has been a trooper and is doing wonderfully now that he's properly medicated. We are seeing much more smiles and fun and a lot less sadness in him. I'm thankful that he has blessed you too. :o)
