Past, present and future.

Today as I took Landon down to meet the bus, he skipped way ahead of me, trying to keep up with Sapphire. He wondered why he wasn't as fast as Sapphire. (A Great Dane, longest legged animal in the domestic animal sphere, bred to chase and trap large game) I told him " Sapphire was built for speed, just look at her back legs!" Then he ran really fast and told me to look at his legs. Yes, I am going to miss this. So much.

Then we reach the end of the driveway and he asks if he can just run across the road, this once. For the (how many days since school started?) 90th time, I tell him no and he says he was kidding anyway.

Then he turns to me and says "Are there actually three of us? Like, a person from the past, a person for now and a person for the future?" Of course I gave him a highly appropriate answer- but where does he get this stuff?
