So Generous

Conversation with Jairus on the way home from school 12/10/10.

Me: How was your day, buddy?

Jairus: Good

What was your favorite part of today?

All of it…I loved it all!

Great! {Pause} What do you think you should get Mrs. Bain* for Christmas?
* his wonderful pre-k4 teacher

(very mater-of- fact): hmm…a new car.

(honestly laughing out loud in surprise) Well…that is one idea. We may have to think of some other ideas too.

I wish I wouldn't have laughed because that made him start to be silly and give me silly answers.  I wish I would have questioned him more about his idea!

After I posted this on facebook, several people commented saying they wanted to be on Jairus' list! :)
