Parenting Failure Of The Week

On Saturday we went out to David’s parent's house on the lake. As we pulled up David told the kids that his aunt and uncle were visiting from Colorado.

He gave a short synopsis of how they were related to both him and their granddad.

Cole asked, “Does that mean we have to be nice to them?”

A little surprized at my sweet son’s question, I replied, “Yes Cole! We are nice to everyone!”

Cole: “Oh yeah, I forgot.”

This was funny. I giggled. Haven't we all had a few "failures" in our day?

I came to be here from Ginger's blog. Why have I not visited before?

You have a very sweet family. Smart too. The quiz on a previous post had me stumped. I got the Bat and the Cheetah and the Greeks, but that was it. I thought the alaphabet came from the Romans.

And I was a 3rd grade teacher! Yikes!

Have a great week.
