As I herded the boys away from the playground, I had them turn around and say goodbye to a cute, towhead seventeen month boy that they had been playing with.
Evan: Mommy! I want a baby just like that one!
Me: You want a baby?
Evan: Yes!
Me: We’ll see what we can do about that.
Evan: Actually (yes, he really does say actually), I think Uncle T should have one!
Me: (Because Uncle T is getting married in August and Aunt K would like to wait on kids for a little while, I smile.) Well, we’ll let Uncle T and Aunt K now what you want.

At least the kid knows what he wants. Mine, also a decisive little guy, requested a girl baby who doesn’t scream or bite. I’d like to second that request:).

Better get moving on it, Fae. Evan needs another brother!

I think he wants a boy cousin from his uncle. He wants a sister from me.
