Our children are full of wisdom and honesty! When they make me laugh, I often think "oh, I wish I could remember that forever"...so I thought if I put them here I could share a smile and remember longer!
Brother was running an errand with me yesterday. I paid for an item and was leaving the store when the nice lady reminded me to get the item I had paid for. I said, " Oh me its been one of those days!" A few minutes later when we got in the van, he repeated what I said. I asked him if he was having a day like that and he said in a very matter of fact voice "no mom, I'm just a kid!" Love that boy more than words can express!!
Big sis awoke after only a few minutes of sleep one night this week in a complete anxiety attack over an issue at school. I encouraged her to talk to her teacher and reminded her how nice her teacher was. Whe I could tell she was still afraid of getting in trouble, I asked her if she'd ever seen her teacher get angry at anyone. Her reply "no, but she has to start with someone!" Sweet, thoughtful girl!!
Daddy took the older two children shopping for my birthday present. When they returned home I asked what they got me (I am like a child when it comes to my birthday!!) . Big sis told me! When dad and brother came in a few minutes later they asked her if she told me and she responded "yes, because she asked!" Honesty to the tee!!!
