Words of Wisdom!
« on: September 30, 2010, 09:23:19 AM »
"When looking for a helping hand, look down first!"  These were the words spoken by my seven year old today to my five year old. I told them to go clean their rooms and Bradley started screaming that he needed help.  His brothers response to his request made my heart melt.  I asked Evan what he meant by that and he replied that we can do almost everything by ourselves if we just try!  I just wish more people had this attitude.  I wonder if he heard this somewhere else or if he just came up with it on his own? Neither would surprise me. :)

It also speaks highly of those who are raising such a wise young man. Good job Heather.

Sure beats "When looking for a helping hand, look to the Government."   Sounds like you're raising a good one there.
