The other night all five of us were in the bathroom, nina and jules bathing and kai was helping me bathe jules.
I told Nate that I had forgotten it was picture day and gave a sideways glance at Kai, who was wearing an oversized saints black tshirt and his blue polyester spain soccer shorts. Nate laughed. Kai gave us this half-grin and said "Hey, at least it wasn't those BEIGE shorts with the big POCKETS that really BOTHER me!" which we had bought for the big photoshoot. There was something so mature in the way he said it and acknowledged that we were kind of poking fun at his clothing but he wasn't hurt at all by it. He was able to play along with it.
I dunno. Hard to describe it but I was really proud of him in that moment, and really sad at how grownup he is.
