You really know you've done well as a parent in
teaching your kid the important things in life when they can demonstrate your
teachings when you’re not in the room. Excellent case in point evidenced by this incredible story:
I was in the office working on something on the computer and
Blake comes running in. He’s in a panic and
really needs some help. He’s voice
resounds fear. “Dad, dad! The TV is
broken. “
Confused and a little concerned, I asked him, “Broken? What’s going on?”
He responds “The TV isn't working,…… Baseball is on.”
There would be no other reason except for being broken where
baseball would be playing on our TV, apparently. My work here is done.
Additionally, some exciting news for you parents. Those without kids aren't really going to
understand the excitement we experienced—hopefully you’ll get there.
We were getting ready for bed last Saturday and going
through our routine. Before Blake gets
into the bath tub he goes potty, then jumps in.
Well last Saturday, Blake had just jumped into the bath and Dylan was
preparing to get in. He looks at me and
says “Potty”. So, we've done this a few
times. We take off Dylan’s diaper and
hold him over the toilet for a few seconds such to get into the habit but
nothing happens. Well Saturday as I was
holding him he points down into the toilet.
I look down and Dylan is peeing.
Of course, I need to make a big deal of it to let him know he’s
awesome. He was so happy that I was
happy. There you go. Our little guy is growing up. What a day.
