Don't Go Breakin' My Heart.


Today, after picking Jakob up from school, I had to run up to campus to get something from Bill. Typically this is no problem at all, but today Jakob decided he wanted to go to work with daddy and use the 'telescope with the swirly things' (a special microscope that he uses). Bill had an awful lot to get done, and knew that Jakob would get bored pretty quickly, so after waffling back and forth for a while, said no.

By this time, Jakob is sobbing his eyes out. Bill looks and me and says "he's breaking my heart!" because he genuinely wanted to take Jakob in with him, but was really busy. After trying to soothe Jakob over for a few minutes, Jakob looks at Bill and through his tears yells "YOU'RE breaking MY heart!"

I had to bury my face in my arm so that he wouldn't hear me laughing. I haven't laughed to the point of tears for a really long time, but that definitely had me going!

I wish I had something more interesting to tell you, but life has been shockingly dull of late.

Since I have been horrible about picture taking the past few days, I thought I'd give you an old picture of Jakob to enjoy. Just outside of the picture, there are DVD cases spread all over the carpet. He so got busted this time!

I can just hear him saying that.

Remember when Ky and I were visiting and we were all at the mall and we were leaving to go home and he wanted to ride with us and he was bawling hysterically?

I cave so easy.

LOL I totally remember that! Most people probably think he's being manipulative, but he genuinely wants something so bad he's crushed when he can't do it, and since going to work with daddy is one of his all time favorites, he cried for AT LEAST an hour. The entire drive home, both boys cried in the backseat, since of course, Jericho can't see Jakob upset without getting upset himself.
