He likes to show his love.
He really does.
And so when it was Valentine's Day he decided to show the neighborhood his love and "make the neighbors happy".
(yes, it has taken me this long to post this!)
Caleb had apparently learned how to draw a heart that week at school.
I gotta' say, I must have missed that day when I was a student because his hearts are better than mine!
Anyway, he started drawing hearts and "happy people" on our sidewalk and our driveway.
Then he went to the next door neighbor's.
on both sides.
and then the next next door neighbor's.
and on it went.
for a looooooong time.
He drew pictures in front of approximately 12 houses , each one having approximately 6 or more "squares" (sidewalk sections...each one HAD to have a picture in it) in front of each house.
That adds up to a LOT of hearts and happy faces.
He had a blast.
After quite a while, I told him we needed to go inside so I could get dinner ready.
He looked at me and said "But Momma, I haven't done ALL the neighbors yet. All of them Mom, on ALL the streets. They need to be happy too."
"Ummm...well, we'll pray that they are sweetie. Right now, we need to go inside. Great job though! "
Ok, so I probably could have given him a better little speech, a more thorough one or deeper one. I just wasn't really up for it or just didn't. Either way, he accepted that.
Two days later though, he grabbed his cart full of chalk again.
This time he said
"Momma, I want to draw hearts and happy faces for the WHOLE WORLD!"
We definitely didn't have time for that.
But what a sweetie.

Soooooo cute! Yeah, his hearts are better than mine too!! Way to go, Caleb!
That is the sweetest thing ever!
Looks like we have a little hearbreaker in the family hon. Especially when he starts dating. He will be making all those hearts for the girls then breaking them......I hope not. Did you tell him how long it would take him to draw hearts for the whole world?????
