I wish I had lots of exciting things to blog about and great pictures to show, but I don't. I have been so busy the last few weeks trying to help Samm make hair bows for a fundraiser and make her a dress and make James a tie for his class play. I still have a long way to go on the dress and bows, but I did finish James' tie yesterday and I couldn't be more thrilled with the way it turned out! I didn't really need to make him one, he just needed a tie that was either red, white, or blue, but I was so proud of him for getting the lead role of Mr. Freedom, that I wanted to make him something special. I love a boy in a white shirt and tie!
And as I was doing my final tuck in of all the kids tonight I happened to over hear this conversation between James and Samm
James "Sometimes when you are mean to me in my life I say something in my head, but I don't want to tell you because you will cry."
Samm "It's OK. You can tell me. I won't cry."
James "I say I hate you."
Samm "I know, I say the same thing. But then we apologize and we regret what we said."
James "OK. Can you read me a chapter of your book?"
I have no idea why he felt the need to tell her that since I didn't notice them fighting today, but it was so sweet the way they were talking to each other. Made my heart feel glad.

Okay super mom, with the custom made Mr. Freedom tie. The rest of us don't feel lazy or anything now.
What a cute conversation you were blessed to overhear. I love when you see those signs that they will end up best friends in the end.
It's great that James feels he can talk to Samm and she is so understanding with him. It's those moments that you realize that they are learning the things you teach them. The tie has Mr. Freedom written all over it. It is super-hero cute.
