Thomas the philosopher

Today's discussion with Thomas the Philosopher went something like this:

Thomas: Mom, is there really magic?

Mom: Um.....

Thomas: I think that life is magic. All the other magic comes from that.


Pretty heavy thoughts for a 7 year old.

It's strange that he can utter things like that one minute and then throw a little fit the next minute because soccer practice is at 5 and not 5:30 or I didn't let him carry his sister down the stairs. It's almost like there's this split personality and one side is this wise, loving, caring old man and the other side is an immature 7 year old. Sigh. I love him.
