Does He Know?
Dec: "Mama, when are we going to go back to The Happiest Place on Earth?"
Me: "I don't know."
Dec: "What do you mean, you don't know?"
Me: "I just mean, we'll have to see."
Dec: "Let's go tomorrow!"
Me: "We're suppose to watch the Smith kids tomorrow remember; I have to work."
Dec: "What do you like more, The Happiest Place on Earth, or the Smith kids? What ever you
like more, that's what we should do!"
Me: "Do you know where I think the Happiest Place on Earth is?"
Dec: "Where?"
Me: "Right here next to you."
O.K. cheesy I know, but I meant it. It distracted him, he giggled and gave me lots of kisses.
I asked him why he was thinking about Disneyland and he said it was the Mickey Mouse ice cream bar he saw in the freezer tonight.
Cut to THIS MORNING -
Declan spies a penny on the floor and runs to it.
Dec: "Mama! Look, Money!!"
Me: "Since you found it, you can keep it."
Declan runs to me and hands me the penny.
Dec: "No Mamma. You need to save it for Disneyland."
Me: "What is with you and Disneyland lately?"
Dec: "I just want to go on that ride."
Me: "What ride?"
Dec: "Soarin Over California!"
Okay, now I'm wondering if subconciously he knows about the trip. I've been talking with my parents about it all week. Very vaugely. I never mention the "D" word. If he really knew, I'm sure he'd ask me directly, it's just weird. Can't wait to see his reaction when he figures it out tomorrow!

Jealousy...I'm starting to feel a bit of it. You guys will have a blast. A Christmasy Disney Visit, so cool.

Kids are amazingly perceptive. Maybe he *does* know something without really knowing it. I, too, am completely jealous.
