sad day at faith bible...kyle atwater (who helped us in the youth from the very beginning when we started) is most likely moving back to denton. i'm still sorta hoping the Lord will throw him for a loop and he will be back next semester...but essentially, this was his last sunday...he was seriously, the best of the best....and he just sorta became a part of our family. we are now all in mourning...:)
so, after his last LINK, the boys all went to give him a hug bye...and then they all ran and got back in the car...and started the most precious conversation that i wanted to record:
L- (closes car door) - i don't want kyle to leave
E- i know. i'm really sad. (within seconds ian was already crying)
T- mom! ian's crying...
(i reached to the back seat and held his hand and said its ok to be sad...kyle was special and we will miss him...etc)
E- (voice breaking and hiccuping through tears) - i don't want him to go...(more crying) is zack gonna come back? (zack is kyles best friend...another stud leader)
(i told him he was, but not till after christmas cuz he is going to be working)
T- i'm sad. sosososososososososooooo sad. cuz zacks not coming back until after christmas, and that's a long ways away! ian, are you sad about zack?
E - yes, but not as much, cuz he is coming back. and if you were that sad, you would be crying.
T- (turns on the light in the back seat) look, see, mom? i have a tear...see, right there?
me- (looking back) oh, ok...are you ok?
T - yes. i just do this so i have tears (proceeds to GAG himself...what?!?)
me - are you gagging yourself?
T - no. it just gives me tears.
me, L, and E errupt in laughter...hard laughing....
T- stop laughing at me!! (seemingly distraught)
E - but you are crying on purpose!
T - no i'm not!! .......well, kinda. but i'm only kinda crying on purpose!
we laughed SO hard....and it was good to get past the tears....
