I was in the kitchen doing something this morning and Zahn was playing in the lounge room.......He then enters the Kitchen and here's the conversation that followed......
Z: muuum, can you come and help me in the lounge room......
M: hang on a sec buddy, let me just finish this, then i'll come in.....
now comes the "but muuuuuum I need you right now" (said in a drawn out whinny kinda way).....followed by a few more "hang ons".....and a few attempts at reasoning. He then looks up at me with his little freckled face and says:
Z: mum, this is important to me and Jesus said we should ALWAYS (emphasised) help people and we should definately do what he says.....so come oooooooonnnnn........
now usually Zahn knows that if he says something is quote, "important to him" (key words) that I almost always instinctively stop what i'm doing and help him with whatever he needs (within reason of course) - i mean really, how can I not help him when he's pleading "it's important to me") so he's kind of figured out it's one of my 'buttons' so to speak.....but this morning when I was trying to reason with him.....and he so sincerely mentioned doing what Jesus says, (my other 'button') how could I not abruptly stop what I was doing and go with him to the lounge room......i mean how can I ignore a comment like that!!!!!!!
I love this little boy!!!!!!!!

Smart guy! And he's a redhead, too! (I'm a bit partial, being as three of my four have red hair. It rocks!)
