Favorite Things

Last night I was making dinner. Without any direction from me at all the boys went downstairs and took a game out of the closet. They then played the game together so nicely, making sure they took turns, and Tyler clapping for Carter when he got his pieces. They did ask me once to join them to play, but made no protest when I told them I couldn't right now. They then put the game away, once again without me having to ask. It's moments like these that I look and see how grown up they really are. Life is good.
