Proud Mommy Moment

I can't wait til tomorrow to share what happened today.

This afternoon while getting ready to bake cookies, DS was outside and talking to our elderly neighbor next door. Our neighbor was doing some yardwork and I saw them talking back and forth. I went about my business mixing cookie dough, turning on the oven, etc. and didn't give it another thought. I went to the sink to rinse my hands and saw DS with a rake in his hands and listening to T. Then I saw T putting down soil and DS raking it around. It made my heart a couple sizes bigger to see DS helping our neighbor. When he came in a short while later, he told me that he wasn't doing anything outside other than skateboarding and asked T if he needed help.

DS really listens to me when I talk. I am raising one great kid. Now to figure out how to get him to help us around the house. LOL

When we were finished decorating the cookies, N asked if he could take some cookies to T and P. I thought that was so great how he thought again of our neighbors. So after the icing set, I sent him off with a plate of cookies. It does my heart good to see DS going out of his way to help another. He does listen to me and DH. I can't believe it.

Well now I am off to go stitch a bit. I didn't stitch last night and I really want to get this pillow done so I can go back to one of my biggie projects.

Nite all.
