Elliot provided us with lots of comic relief on our recent road trip. Here are two of my favorite quotes:
Elliot was crying at one point in the car, wallowing in misery. I said, "Don't worry. We're almost there." To which he replied, through tears, "I don't want to be almost there..." Sometimes he's just happier being unhappy, apparently...
Later, on one of our beautiful hikes, we came to a steep hill that lead down to a riverbank. Ted had Theo in the Ergo carrier, and I was helping Mattie. The kids screamed out in excitement to climb down the hill and wade in the water. I said to Ted, "I don't think that's a very good idea." Elliot replied, "I don't either, but it's just so cool!"
