Funny Happenings

I wanted to snap a picture but I was too busy enjoying the moment.

The kids were playing outside while I was making dinner. I went to check on them and found Stephen in a tree with Jack's stuffed animal cat (that he carry's everywhere and has named kitty katty). Jack was on the ground with a stick trying to reach the cat and help it out of the tree.

Stephen told me he had placed the cat high in the tree and was training his brother to be a firefighter because sometimes firefighters have to help get cats out of trees.

Once Jack would get the cat down with his stick, Stephen would try a new spot.

By the time dinner was done cooking they came running inside and Jack was so excited because he thought he was an official fireman. He told me Stephen had trained him and said he was fireman ready. And since all it takes to be a fireman is a little training from Stephen, I couldn't disagree with him.

I love the way kids minds work.

After dinner it was fun to pull out my old firefighting photos and show the kids that their old mom used to be one of those "cool" firefighters.

They were a little more interested in watching a cartoon, but I had fun reminiscing.
