We took a walk the other night so the boys could ride their scooters. Jude's was a Craigslist find with big all-terrain wheels and Ethan's is the Target brand (that looks like a Razor but is waaayyy less expensive) that a friend gave him. While we were walking, some other boys were riding their scooters towards us and this was their interaction with Ethan:
Boys: What kind of scooters are those? (in a mocking sort of "we have Razor Scooters" kind of voice)
Ethan: (having no category for name brands he looks at his scooter, shrugs his shoulders and says) I have the folder kind. (meaning: his folds in half)
Boys: (looking at each other puzzled and at a loss for words...but didn't want to be one-upped...they reply) Well we have folders too.
After a lull everyone rode off in different directions...Ethan still unaware that there was a difference and the other boys probably still thinking they had the better scooter.

- I'm married to a man in ministry and am a mother of two boys and two little girls. I love journaling about the comings and goings of our life so that we can look back 1) on how our great God and Savior has worked in and through us...2) and to see how our four little blessings change and grow over the months.
