Subtle Campaign


Davis still insists that he wants another brother.  He loves Emily, but the "girls always have her" and "Jamison is always helping dad" so he wants "Alex".  (Never mind that that type of logic could keep us adopting forever.)


He's changing his tactics.  Apparently he's realized that reminding me weekly that he hasn't changed his mind wasn't getting him anywhere.

Today he started on his dad.

Davis:  Dad, I'm so disappointed that those waterwheels weren't working when we visited the Yellow River.



Dad:  Yeah, I am, too.  I wish we could have seen that.

Davis: Maybe they'll be working when we go back next year.

Dad isn't changing his mind either.  In two words, "No way!"

  1. How can you resist his subtleness and that sweet face! The poor boy needs a brother! Another brother, that is. How cute.
