He Knows How To Get Me

We were in the car driving home from dinner the other night.  We were talking about how my grandmother is going to be 90 this year and Noah was impressed “because that’s like infinity.”  When you are five that is pretty true.  He asked if she was going to die and we said yeah, someday she will but she could live a lot longer (she’s in fantastic health and her aunt lived to be 105).  Then we had the following conversation

N: Will I be a grandpa someday

Me: Yeah.

N: Then I will die?

Me:  Yes honey, we all do.

N: Then I’ll come back as a baby again?

Me:  Yes.

N:  Will someone adopt me again…

I’m silent I don’t know what to say exaclty

N:  I want you and dad to adopt me again.

My little heart just melted and I started to get teary eyed.

Then he made a fart joke or a butt joke and it makes me hope I can do it with him all over again.
