Early Morning Confessions

This is the first thing each of them uttered this morning upon waking.

Anders - "I love you Kuba."

Kuba - "I love you Anders...because I have a kind heart."


And then of course I silently said my own prayer of complete gratitude. A self-confessed kind hearted child is just about the best thing any mom could ask for. Who would have guessed this would be the statement of the day from Kuba - who was the 2 year old who solved every angry or frustrated moment with a clobber, scratch, or bite. Just goes to show you that you can never give up the teachable moment. Maybe this will be the spring and summer that he stops squashing bugs too. It's been a thrilling year so far.

Oh Judy, As my children are playing tickle tackle and are displaying general roughness- I read your post to Tom. Feeling like kindred spirits here...

Yes, the only problem is that we live so very far away from one another! I would love it if you lived right next door!
