Don't Die

When I dropped Ethan off at school today he said to me, "See ya later. Have fun. Don't die."

I love Ethan so MUCH! He is great fun to be around. I learned long ago that he was smarter than me and I'm okay with that. He loves to learn, question, and analyze the deep questions of life and the universe. He remembers everything he reads or hears. Now, if I could only get him to remember to take his backpack to school..........

He excels in reading, math, and science but his favorite class ever: Ceramics.

Here are a few photos of his projects:
A mug for Aaron.

A bowl for me.

Other various projects.

These ceramics may be far from perfect in the art world but, Ethan is quite proud of them. In my eyes,  they are more than perfect and I will cherish them until the day I die. Hopefully that won't be today, I don't want Ethan to think I didn't listen to his advice.

I love that Colette! It didn't take me long to realize that Ethan is WAY smarter than me too! I'm not much of the "thinking/analyzing/questioning" type but I'm glad that there are others out there who are :)

This post makes me laugh. I liked Ethan's cup for Aaron. I loved his comment about you not dying. In a nice way that tells me that he does care about his mom.
