When I grow up...

So today Jackson came to me with his very first "When I grow up I wanna be..." He said, "Mommy, I know what I wanna be when I get big." I asked him what, and he responded "A Mommy!" and gave me a great big hug. He wasn't even angling for fruit snacks! I didn't have the heart to tell him he couldn't.

Other cute things he said recently were:
"Drive Safe!" to his father every morning. He actually gets pretty upset if his Daddy leaves before he has a chance to tell him to drive safe.
While we were pretending to be in a car that he was driving, he was making great, big steering motions and leaning really far over. When I asked him what he was doing he said, "Driving crazy! Like Daddy!" (I think the two may be connected!)
"It's ok, Tuck. Your Jackson is here."
"Let me know if you need a bandaid or some cold water. I get it for you." After I told him it was time to go inside and get ready for bed because I was getting eaten alive by mosquitos.
"What does 'hard wood floor' start with?" We were talking about what letter different things start with.
And lasty, this came today from out of the blue while I was sitting on the couch with Tuck. "Mom, put Tuck in his swing and go check your email." I still haven't figured out what he wanted to do, but it couldn't have been good if he needed me to leave the baby.
