The Many Faces of Isaac

Isaac will be FIVE next week.  Seriously?!?  Ridiculous.  How has it been five years? 
He has said some mighty cute and insightful things lately.  The other day (fine, weeks ago because I haven't blogged forever,) while driving, we saw a dog that looked very much like Abbie did.  He asked when she was going to come back. :-(  I went on to explain that once a dog dies, they don't come back.  I told him that maybe her soul would come back some day.  He became very quiet until a few minutes later when he asked if a soul looked like brown goo (tehehe.)  So, then I had the task of explaining what a soul is.  A soul is who you are, who you love, what kind of person you are.  Quiet again...minutes pass.  Finally "mom, I think that the brain, soul and heart all work together."  Unbelievably sweet.
Another favorite:  We went to Red Butte canyon to take a little walk/hike.  Dave and I met there nearly 14 years ago.  When we got to the bridge we met on, we told Isaac about meeting there.  He had questions, so the short version of what we told him went something like this:  We met here, we decided to get married, mom said to dad, should we have some kids?  Dad said yes, sure.  So, we rolled the dice and it landed on two, so we had two kids.  He took that all in, and that was that.  A couple weeks later while in the car (he does his best contemplating in the car :) Isaac says "mom, I wish you would have rolled a three."  I didn't know what he was talking about until I inquired further.  "then I would get a little sister."  Aw...   Very sweet...but not sweet enough to have another baby! ;-)
Anyway, here are the Isaac

faces that frequent these parts each and every day!
