have a crappy day

Yes, this is what I told Kaden as he got out of the car for school today...

  Not because I really wanted that, but because he knows me, and knows I was kidding & it made him laugh, and I love that he goes to school happy.  When I say the usual "Bye buddy, have a good day, love you" he barely looks at me and rarely says "I love you too" or even "bye"    Today, he was giggling and so was I.  In fact, I opened the window after he got out and continued to fake laugh really loud....he probably hates me, but you know he was smiling the whole way into that school.  I love that  :)

It made me realize something about myself .  I have that gift.  I know what makes my kids smile, and when they need it.  I am spontaneous and not afraid to act silly like that, and I hope that they will always remember that about me.
