Dace moment of the day

We spent the afternoon doing different things on the island, killing time til Dallin gets home.  As we were heading home for supper, Dace said that he wanted to " go another bye-bye."  I explained that it was time to go home and eat supper, then have a bath.

"A bath, and movie?"  He asked excitedly, because that seems to be the trend these days.

"Yes, you can watch a movie after the tub.  Which one do you want to watch?"

After a moment of sincere pontification, he exclaimed, "Mar-meen!"

"You want to watch mermaid?"

He laughs, "yup!"

"Do you think mermaid is pretty, Dace?" I ask.

"Yeah," he says, "And mommy too!"

"Awww, bubba!  Thanks, sweet pea!"

He squeals then says "Mommy happy, right?!"

I laugh, grinning from ear to ear at the sweetest boy in the backseat.  "Yes, mommy happy."
