Going To College?

Our youngest son, Zane is four years old. He is very fond of his oldest brother and misses him quite a bit. He is fond of telling us, “When I grow up, I’m going to go to college and see Dakota.”
A couple of days ago, while Dena was in the kitchen, Zane came to her carrying with a brown paper bag full of his belongings.
She was on the phone but paused to ask him what he needed. He smiled and held up the bag of his items, which included a pair of shoes, a teddy bear, several books, pajamas, a “Bob The Builder” toy crane. Then Zane proudly proclaimed, “These are the things I’m going to take with me when I go to college with Dakota!”
Pretty sweet! Makes me get a little weepy, though.
