The Sweetest Words Spoken

As we were doing Christmas stuff this evening (decorating stockings, doing crafty ornaments and such, and decorating the tree) Lexi made the comment that Christmas was only 10 days away. I corrected her, since there are 11 days, or if you want to get technical 10 days 2 hrs and 36 minutes. Anyways, I then said that I wish we could rewind time and forget that Christmas ever happened (in regards to the presents and decorating and such, not the birth of J.C.) since I was not in the Christmas spirit. Jacob then says, "Well you better be, cause we can't have Christmas without you." I seriously could not contain the tears. That has got to be the sweetest thing that has come out that boys mouth EVER! Even sweeter than I love you which has become more like a habit or formality for some. That boy can drive me from crazy to delighted in a fraction of a second. He will make someone very happy one day (and I am sure she will think "Can't live with him, can't shoot him" too!). We couldn't do Christmas without you either, buddy!
