A Family Like Marley & Me

I have not seen Marley and Me...mainly because Jackson saw it and told me Marley dies in the end...yeah I'm not watching it.  *Sorry if I ruined it for anyone...Opps!

So our sweet 6 year old saw Marley and Me with his mom and one evening while I was doing the dishes and he was sitting at the dinner table eating dessert we had this talk:

J: I wish we had a family like Marley and Me

S: What kind of a family do they have in Marley and Me?

J: Oh you know a mom and dad and two brothers and a sister

S: And a big slobbery dog?

J: No just our two dogs would be fine...but the mom is at home and when the dad gets home from work the boys play football in the front yard.

S: You know that dad and I are trying to have a baby, right?

J: Yes. You know I don't really care if it's a brother or a sister.  I know I said before that I wanted it to be a brother, but I would be fine with a sister.

S: I have been seeing a doctor that is helping us to get pregnant.  My body has had a little trouble getting pregnant. (After I said this I was praying that the "how do you get pregnant" question was not next)

J: Was it sad when you found out that time that you were pregnant and then the doctor told you that you were not pregnant?

*We had told Jackson that the doctor made a mistake after our ectopic pregnancy. We knew he would not understand what had happend.

S: It was not sad when the doctor told me that I was pregnant, but when I wasn't pregnant anymore that was very sad for me. 

J: I'm glad we had this talk.

I just love him! He is probably the sweetest little person I have ever known.  He has a huge heart for a being only 6.
