On the way home today, I had a conversation with Parker that I just had to blog about. I wanted to make sure I don't forget. He is soooo funny and he is just growing way too fast.
The conversation started as we passed the Cedar Rapids Marriott. Whenever we drive by he always says that is where he works. I think this is because I used to work at the Rockwell building next door. Anyway, he told me that is where he works (as he does every time we drive by). There was construction in the parking lot and he told me that his work was dirty and we needed to have someone clean it up. (This, of course, tells me that he will someday aspire to be a manager). :)
Then I asked him what he does at his work and he told me he makes money (Fair enough).When I asked him what he needs money for, he said he needs it to buy Camdyn toys. Then he told me that Camdyn was going to come to his work. He said that she was going to crawl there and that he would carry her. All of this talk about work must have made him realize that he has no way of going to and from work so he informed me that he needs a car. I asked him what kind of car and his response? "A white one. A big white truck like Daddy's." I guess he does have a point, if he wants to have a job, he needs a car. Ah, the old chicken/egg situation. But how will he ever get a big white truck if he doesn't have a job? :)
The conversation was obviously funnier in person as we went back and forth. But it made me realize just how FAST this little boy is growing up. It seems like just yesterday he was toddling around sucking on those two middle fingers that used to be forever fastened to his mouth. Or that he was the little boy with the 'ba' cup hanging out of his teeth, terrified at the idea of Mommy bringing a baby to his house. I don't know where the last three and a half years have gone!
