Anyone who has kids will so appreciate this conversation that took place between my hubby and our 7 year old son N while hubby was shaving last night before bed.....
"Why are you shaving"
"Because I need to so my cpap mask will fit right"
"Does your shaving cream smell"
"No"
" Why not"
"Because I got unscented"
"Why do you have to wear your mask"
"Because I stop breathing if I don't"
"You didn't wear your mask last night and you slept just fine"
"No I didn't I tossed and turned all night and stopped breathing a few times I am sure"
"Why didn't mom put your mask on"
"I dunno"
"Dad, you are wasting water when you leave it run like that" (my favorite)
"But I am using it, see I have to rinse the hair out of my razor"
"You have shave cream on your ear"
"Ok I am not done yet"
"You have some on your neck too"
"Ok son" (as he is trying to shave)
"You have some on your earring too"
"Thank you son"
"So when I grow up do I have to shave too"
"Sure"
"Well I like you scruffy"
"Well so does mom but then my mask doesn't fit right"
"Dad, you are still wasting water"
It went on like that for about 20minutes, back and forth with me just laying in bed and listening to the whole thing. They talked about school, and dad being a fireman, riding bikes, and all sorts of stuff. It was great to hear them fire back and forth with each other. N asking real questions as dad shaves, and dad answering them just as fast. I love to hear it...made me smile all tucked in the covers listening to 2 out of my 3 favorite boys......
Life is good for the most part.....
