mama’s boy

Today Silas was sick with a mysterious fever and so was not his normal, hyperactive self. He spent most of the day in bed and while awake was clinging to Anita constantly.

Shortly before dinner time Silas said, “I want to take a bath with mama.” Here’s the conversation that ensued:

Danny: “How about if you take a bath with daddy tonight?”

Silas: “No, I want to take a bath with mama.”

Danny: “Come on buddy, let me give you a bath. It’ll be fun.”

Silas: “I love you dad. (pause) But I love mama more.”

Danny: (laughing)

Silas: “Why are you laughing?”

    huh. If I were in your shoes, I don’t know whether I’d laugh or cry.

    We miss you guys too!

    It’s funny, every time we tell Silas we’re going to have guests, he always thinks you guys are coming back. =)
