We've been having some very serious moments with Brayden lately. We haven't known what to do about it and we've talked to him a bunch and tried to reassure him and help him and get to the bottom of what is going on.

Bobby was just putting him to bed and their conversation went a little something like this.

Brayden, you know you're Mom loves you?"
"Yea."
"You know she's always gonna love you and worry about you...even when you're grown up and move out and have a family of your own."
"Yea."
"Do you know why?"
"Yea."
"Why?"
Cause I'm her son."
"That's right..."

Brayden said. "I'm gonna tell you something you don't know."
Bobby said, "What?"

Brayden sat up very seriously to look at him...

These were the profound words that came from his mouth.

"Monkey's don't really squirt bananas out like this." (He made a hand motion and a squish sound like you'd see on a cartoon.) ...
He went on to tell Bobby how Monkey's really eat their banana's as Bobby tried not to crack up before coming straight to tell me.

Glad to know in the big scheme of things, his priorities are still in place:)
