Random conversations

"Mom, where is your favorite place in all of Texas?"

Me: " I don't know."

" Mine is Lubbock."
This confuses me a little.
" Really Why?"

"I don't know it just is. Granddy is there."

"Yeah that is a nice place." I smile.

Reality hit me that he thought it was a nice place because that is where in his little heart he saw his Granddy last. I can't explain the connection my kids had especially the 2 younger ones with my Grandfather their Great Grandfather. Even though their time with him was short they developed a bond so close.

You often wonder where 8 year olds come up with things. He had just finished a busy day at school and we were rushing off to my office but Granddy was on his mind.

How special he must be to Sebastian. I never realized the depth.
