DISCLAIMER

This blog is where I record a limited depiction of my feelings, family, and faith. My blog was recently under intense scrutiny, and so I feel this disclaimer is necessary. I try to tell my story as openly as I can, but this blog represents a cropped and narrow-viewed version of my story -- like all social media -- it is NOT the full story. Many events happen behind the scenes that are not recorded or written about, due to the sensitive nature of others involved. Life has many layers. Many layers can be shared and many cannot, and this blog is simply a layer of my life that I allow others to view, but it is not an accurate depiction of all the layers of my life.

Buying Affection

William running to the car after Kindergarten -- love this kid! 
I went to the store for some chocolate chips. I was feeling unusually nice -- so I got William some Mike And Ikes. (Buying middle-of-the-week candy is not a common occurrence in our house.) When we got in the car, we had this charming conversation: 

William: "Mom, I actually like you now." 

Me: "You like me because I bought you candy?" 

William: "Yes, I actually like you!" 

Me: "Well, that is nice . . . but you should like me just cause I am your mom."

William: "Yeah, I guess. That too." 


I guess William's love-language is gift receiving. Either I need to teach him better, or I better start buying him more candy.
