Watch your language...



Aiden: Mommy, what language do people who live in China speak?


Me: Chinese


Aiden: Oh. (Then with a disappointed sigh) I wish I spoke Chinese. Or Arabic. Or English. Or Spanish. I only know HUMAN!

Teacher vs. Student... Who is who?!

I'm such a good example. I teach my children to choose the right. They learn. They follow. ;)



Just the other day, Aiden finished his pancakes and headed downstairs to play. I called after him, "Aiden, are you finished eating?" He yelled back, "Yep!" I questioned, "Why is your plate still on the table?" He very sweetly replied, "Because I wanted somebody else to put it up... to be helpful and kind!" I kindly helped him and put his plate in the sink.


Aiden's such a good example. He teaches me to choose the right. I learn. I follow.
