A boy and his brother...


This morning, just as I was about to get out of bed, in came a darling red head with a sweet grin. He was carrying a tray with two Krispy Kreme doughnuts and a glass of milk. He sat the tray down next to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. He asked if there was anything else I needed. 

Although KK doughnuts are a no no for my stomach first thing in the morning - I enjoyed every bite while my little guy sat beside me and chatted up a storm about pending firework purchases.

He's doing a good job learning to be thoughtful and kind just like his big brother.

Today I took Davis to his ortho appointment to find a very busy office. All the seats were filled and so we stood. Soon a few chairs emptied and we took them. A women got up and went to the front desk to take care of something and when she was done, someone else had taken the seat. The woman sat on the ground against a wall just a arm’s length away from Davis. After a moment Davis turned to the woman and offered her his seat. He got up and asked her to please take it. She said “no thank you. I am fine really” and expressed her thanks to him. She said, “what a kind young man.” Another woman who saw and heard the exchange said as well, “what a sweet young man.” I just grinned from ear to ear and silently thanked my Heavenly Father for blessing me with such a good boy. It makes my heart so happy to see him make good choices, act upon the things he has been taught and set a strong, solid example for his little brother.
