Another Thomas moment ….
He told me the other night he wanted to stay a kid forever and asked if he could do that and if it was okay. I told him his body will keep getting older but he sure as heck can stay a kid in his mind if he wants to and that I thought that was a fabulous and awesome idea!! Right on Thomas!!
He inspires me so much! xoxo

“Painting is my passion” and “Painting makes me happy” -Thomas Darnell …
While painting this morning Thomas says he hasn’t decided whether he wants to be an artist/painter or a restaurant worker when he grows up. He asks me how to choose. I tell him choose whichever one brings him happiness and whichever one he is happiest doing. This brought on the previous quotes from him.
Then he asked if it’s okay to try being a restaurant worker so he knows what it’s like. Absolutely it is Thomas! I so much love that I get to be this young man’s Mama! xoxo

Today we drove through downtown Reno going from Rancho San Rafael Park to Lillian’s therapy appointment in Midtown.
Thomas saw a sign that said something like “Inexpensive Family Fun”.
He says, “Fun is free. What are they talking about?”
Yes, Yes, Yes!!! xoxo

Thomas wrote a Halloween song today … I think it’s awesome … xoxo
“Something is There”
(Rising music)
Something creepy,
One night,
I turned around,
And to my surprise,
Something was there!
A moon crisis,
I thought it was,
But,
I WAS WRONG!
(Crisis music)
I made it one night,
It rose,
I made a mad dash,
But,
When I ran outside,
I ran into,
The cemetery!
Ghost’s were rising,
Zombies were digging,
Bats were flying!
I flew home,
Locked doors and windows,
Closed all blinds,
I checked the date,
Guess what it said,
OCTOBER 31!

“Where has society reached when “giving love” is a job description?” -Thomas … He wants to volunteer at The Humane Society and saw this as a job description on the website. xoxoxo
That’s definitely my kind of job description!! Thomas’ thoughts were that this is just something we should all already be doing … xoxoxo

{This kid does not even hear me when he’s reading. Stopped at the grocery store to pick up a few things earlier and he read his book while walking down the aisles!!}

He (Thomas) asks, “Where’s my pillow?” …. after he looks all over the house for it. “You put it in the freezer after you took it out of the backpack you’d put it in because you were leaving and going to live somewhere else.”
“Oh. That’s right! Thanks!” 😂…. Then he gets in bed with the “Social Security for Dummies” book that he checked out from the library and starts reading it. 😜
I have been blessed with some incredibly interesting kids who are definitely unboring. 🙏💞 xoxox

Thomas ….
Today was Team TLC library day. These look like exciting, juicy, intriguing books. Don’t they?
Thomas said, “You should get these.” I replied that reading them may make me crazier than I already am plus drive me to drinking.
So, Thomas checked them out so he could read them and advice me in matters relating to Lillian. Thank you Thomas!! xoxo
