As soon school ends for the day, Sky scurries outside and makes his way to the sandbox in the school’s playground. He just hands over his backpack and gets lost in sand happiness oblivion.
This afternoon as I watched Sky revel in the joy that playing with sand gives him, one of the boys there started flinging sand around – and my legs were the unfortunate victims of the sand flinging.
Sky stood up and went straight to the boy and said…
“DON’T DO THAT TO MY MOM! YOU SHOULD SAY SORRY TO MY MOMMY!”
The boy was a fist taller than Sky. He said sorry. And all the other adults nearby was smiling as they watched the event unfolding.
And my little man started wiping off the sand on my legs and said, “Let’s go now Mom…”
I was speechless.
aaawwww…. that is so sweet, looks like Sky will grow into a fine and beautiful man.
Thanks Let!
I think so too! And I will do my best to guide him to become the man he deserves to become… And even more…
