This morning, as I was pulling up to Little T's school to drop him off, there was a girl walking up the long sidewalk which also led to the same front door of the school. As she walked across on the cross-walk in front my car, I told Little T, "You need to hold the door open for that little girl."
Little T: "Why?" Big T: "Just do it."
So, Little T saunters up to the door, luckily barely before the little girl gets there. He pulls open the door with a 'rolling-the-eyes' look at me and Big T in the car.
We made sure we were still there before leaving, to make sure he did it. ;)
We smiled and waved really big, and I gave him a 'thumbs-up', which in 'Mom-to-sports-kid talk' is "GREAT JOB!!!"
(It's one of our 'signs'....) :)
Luckily, SHE didn't see that look he gave us, and his 'chivalry act' was still intact. :) I hope he made her heart smile. I know mine did.
Thank you for your help, Big T.....glad to know these lessons aren't going unnoticed. You are an awesome example as a big brother. <3
Here's to bringing back 'Chivalrous Acts'.....
one step at a time....
one door at a time....
one 'crazy-Mom-look' at a time...

P.S. SOMEDAY.....WE WILL WORK ON THESE: ;)

INSURED MEETING :)
I don't remember, when I was young, even knowing about or being concerned with insurance....or real world stuff....maybe because the commercials weren't pounded into our heads then....on every channel.....or maybe because we ONLY had 4 channels.
< I can hear my kids do a 'gasp' when they read that... ;) >
However....
This morning, after seeing several Allstate Insurance commercials,
Little T said to Big T..."You don't HAVE to get Allstate...."
Big T said, "We don't have Allstate."
Little T, "Well, what do we have????"
Big T, "Geico."
Little T....smiling big..."Oh.... so WE get to MEET that LIZARD!!!!" :)
(I hope so...I think that 'lizard' is hilarious!!! :D G
