A Proud Moment

The boys and I went to WalMart today to pick up a few things. So of course that means we have to go to the toy aisle first. I've found out if I give them 10 minutes to look at the toys our shopping experience is much better. Also they were told before we entered the store that Mommy has no toy money. We get to the toy aisle and the boys are looking at Spiderman stuff and Nicholas knocks some things off. He immediately begins to pick it up and put it all back on the shelf without being asked. And later when he knocked something off again his brother helped him get it back onto the shelf, and I didn't have to say anything. I'm happy that my boys are learning to pick up after themselves. I've seen adults in stores knock things off and not pick them back up. I'm glad that the things I'm teaching my boys are sinking in on some level. And today was a blessing from God in which he showed me that they are listening and learning. Praise the Lord.
