This week

he painted me a "rainbow" at Stay and Play

and

out of know where, he leaned in and said, "mom, you my best mom in the whole world! Big hug!"

and

"mom, I have a secret."

mom: Whats that?

Carter: "I want to marry you"

talk about melting my heart and making my eyes tear up.

I just love the things he comes up with! and somehow after all that, it makes the times he is throwing his shoes at me a little easier to take....
