The Worrier

If you know Shane, you know he's a worrier.

And, it seems to magnify right before bed. I do think that part of it is his way of putting off bed.

But the other part is real and his worries do tend to come out at night.

Evidentially he had a bad dream a few years ago that Owen was in the car and the floor board fell out and he was, um, hurt.

Well, Shane is still worried about it. And right before bed tonight, he brought it up again.

I told him to instead think about how he was going to spend his birthday money, since it's absolutely burning a hole in his pocket.

SHANE: I'll buy Owen some health insurance in case that dream comes true.

ME: We already bought him health insurance.

SHANE: Then I'll buy him life insurance.

ME: We already bought him life insurance.

SHANE: Oh man. Y'all buy all the good presents.

LOL.

Great Grandpa would be proud that he's a thinker, a planner and a worrier. Maybe Alliance found their next president.

Is he really 9? What 9 year old thinks about buying insurance?
