imaginary siblings

I've had a little blogging writer's block recently. Luke's in school so many hours a week. I'm still getting used to him being away from us so much. But he's doing well and is really enjoying school. And I've been working most everyday the last few weeks. I didn't intend on increasing my hours when Luke started school. Hopefully it's just temporary.

So our pace just feels a little more hectic lately, but all is well.

Friday night, just before his bath, Luke told me "A long time ago, but when I was a big kid, I had a brother and sister. The sister's name is Emily and the brother is Alex. Emily is 8 and Alex is 7."

After bath I had him tell Lamar about his siblings. He said, "Well, they have the same mom as me. But they have a different dad. His name is Larry." I was unaware he knew this was possible.

The next day we went shopping in Murfreesboro. As we exited the interstate he pointed to the Embassy Suites he shouted, "Right there!! That's where Emily and Alex live in Room 2-4-0!"

He didn't mention them yesterday so I asked what they were up to. He said, "Oh, Emily and Alex are in Spring Hill today."

I wonder what kind of rumors he's started at school.

He is a very bright little boy. The imagination is so important. My kids, all three, had imaginary friends and family. Enjoy this time, it goes so quickly.
