This morning David was being a little more than a handful during some very busy activities that involved both Dustin and me. I asked David to please play in the living room and when he continually kept returning to our busy-ness, he was sent to his room. He went crying and very sad to be there. When our project was all said and done I went back into his room to talk about what had happened. This is how our conversation went:
Me: David, when Mommy and Daddy ask you to do something we need you to do it. We want you to be safe.
David: Okay, Mommy. Sorry. I try.
I just about melted. He said sorry and that he would try all on his own with no prompting from me. I was so proud of him in that moment and I realized just how fast he is growing up and all the things that he is learning.

Awe, how sweet. That's such a grown up thing to say.
