Seeing My Children's Eyes Light Up    I guess magic is another way to put it.  Our cousin's daughter's math teacher rebuilt a "Mater" truck and calls it "Potater."  He drove it in the fair parade for his grandchildren, and because Andrea is such good friends with this particular teacher, he took our kids for a ride.  Can you believe that?  They were seriously in heaven.

That night, they were so tuckered out from our drive home, so we just got them to bed as each one got out of the shower.  As a result, we said prayers individually, versus collectively.  Ethan's prayer was all about Mater.  Everything I said, he would add Mater too and then, after we said "Amen," he completely went off again about seeing Mater.  Oh, that boy loves Mater.  Anyway, it was a really cool truck and the boys thought it was so fabulous.
