Moments With Karson…June 2018

I am in so much trouble when Karson grows up!  Heck, I’m already in trouble with this little boy’s cute face and big personality.  Such a great boy, full of life and happiness!

I had my first touch of my son’s protectiveness just the other day.  It was the most hilarious, cute, and scary projection of what is to come in my life with Karson.  I was getting ready to go see my girl friend in Augusta and this trip, Karson was staying home with his dad.  We are up in the morning going through our normal routine and I was getting dressed as I had already dressed Karson for his day.  Well, on this particular day, I decided to wear a crop top (and when I say crop, not above my belly button but definitely showing a sliver of skin).

Karson is sitting on my bed and says “Mommy what is that?”…pointing at my shirt.  I proceed to tell him it is my shirt with Jimmy Hendrix.  He looks at me and then looks back at my shirt inquisitively and sits up on the bed.  He looks at me again and says “Mommy, shirt to0 short?” and then after that grabs a part of my shirt and begins to tug it down to my pant line as he grunts.  The shirt of course budges a bit and then comes back up.  He then takes a part of the shirt towards the middle (as he had just tried to pull the side) and pulls down again.

Of course by this time, I am giggling at his attempts to pull down my crop top shirt.  He looks at me again and says ” Mommy, shirt to0 short.”  I tell him “No Karson, its called a crop top and it is supposed to be a bit short.”  He just looks at me and asks “Crop top?”.  We proceed with our conversation as we move towards the door and to the car.

After I drop him off at his school, I cannot help but think, Lord help me when I go out on dates once again….smh…my son is already policing my outfits at the age of 2…..I cannot imagine what will come out of his mouth at 5, 8, and even 15!  But deep down, it warmed my heart that my son even now has this protection streak.  At least I know he will tell me the truth no matter what! LOL

Mothers, what stories do you have of you little ones?  When did they become protective of you?  Or try and correct you at the “old” age of 2 and 3?  I cant wait to hear about you and your little one’s shared moments!
