Yesterday, mom asked me what little things the boys might want for Valentine's Day. I had some trouble coming up with ideas, so decided to ask the boys. Not wanting to encourage greed machines, I decided to phrase it a little delicately and see what they said. I figured if their hearts truly desired something, it would come out.
"Boys, how are things going; is there anything in your life that is lacking?"
Liam thought about it for all of 5 seconds, and then asnwered, "Nope. Things are good."
Very reassuring.
Finn didn't answer at first, and then asked what lacking meant. Liam helped me explain, and told Finn, "If something is lacking, it means it is something that you don't have, but if you had it, it would make you happy."
Finn thought about this for a couple of minutes, and then answered, "Quinn."
Quinn is his best friend who recently moved up a class.
So, Mom, can you get the Finn's best friend back for Valentine's Day?
