So, here are two little cute things that Darius, our five year old foster kid, has done:
1. He plays non-stop with our neighbor, Darren, who is 6. The two of them are pretty cute together, and they call each other "Best buddy." When Darren got home tonight from being out with his family, we were outside playing, and Darren yelled out the window, "hey best buddy!" and Darius yelled it right back. Pretty cute.
2. The other night at dinner, Darius told me that I was beautiful. Then, a few minutes later, he declared that he had was full. I asked, "Your tummy is full?" and he responded, "yeah, but not my heart." I followed with, "Your heart has more room for love?" and he said, "Yeah. Like when I said, 'you're beautiful' . . . that's love." Right on, buddy.
Sometimes, I don't think I'm giving them enough love . . . not as much as they dish out so freely to us.
