by plannerchick ~ my baby boy can say the funniest stuff. he is standing on the brink of 9 years old (i need to pause a moment to gain my composure), and i cannot believe it. when my husband and i met, he was 3, i cannot believe how these last 5 1/2 years have flown by.
anyway, being that he is almost 9, he is getting very growny. i can remember myself at this age, trying to say stuff to make the grown ups laugh, wanting so much to be a part of the funniness.
if my hubby and i are in another room and he hears us laughing, i can literally do a countdown from 5 until he is right there wanting to be a part.
i really want to make sure and cherish these years, because there will come a time when me and dad will not be some of the coolest people he knows. don't get me wrong i believe we will always have a close relationship, i'm not one of those who thinks that when he turns 13 or 14 he will suddenly hate us. but this time now, getting to watch him grow into such a little man. he is so caring, and so sensitive, and soooo incredibly loving. it's like God just handed me a bonus with him, a special present meant only for me. we have such an amazing bond, that i know was handed to us straight from God.
sorry, just had to take a moment there, back to the funny. i thought i'd share this one for all to giggle at. when we were taking our family pics 2 weeks ago. photochick was getting one where he would peek out from behind a pillar and my hubby and i would be sitting on the steps kissing.
well he started making the jokes about daddy and kaylor sitting in a tree, and kiss her, kissy, kissy. well then he busts out with this little gem...... give her a chinese kiss.....well i immediately fell out laughing, he was trying to say french kiss, but apparantly used the wrong culture. luckily photochick caught this family moment on film. i need to write it down so i never forget. these truly are the priceless moments in life.
and this is life with the planner family!!!
I love that you shared the story behind the laugh. I always wonder how you could capture such a genuine laugh on cue. Who knew it was actually something that funny. Thanks, you made my day!

Kaylor this photo is awesome...cherish it forever! These photographs are always my favorite - much better than a staged studio shot. You guys look incredibly happy!!
