Sweet Isaac
I am posting this conversation I had with Isaac so I can always remember it.
Just yesterday Isaac asked me, “Mommy, when you blow out the candles on a birthday cake, does the wish really come true?” Purposely avoiding a direct answer I responded this way: “Isaac, if you could wish any wish and have it come true, what would your wish be?” He thought for a few seconds and this was his reply: “I would wish for Ethan to always be nice to me so we could always be best friends.”
This conversation took place out of the blue, during the middle of the day when Ethan was at school. It melted my heart and put goose bumps on my arms. That kid is just so sweet!
Later that same day, when I was driving Ethan home from school (Isaac was home with Daddy) I told him about the conversation. It put a huge smile on his face and his reaction was: “Woa! That’s a good one!” (meaning the wish)
I love how unselfish Isaac is. He didn’t want to wish for lots of money, candy, toys, or anything materialistic. He just wanted a perfect relationship with his big brother.
Aww….
what a sweet boy.
