Sweetness

Just documenting the sweet spirit of my son...This morning my son climbed in bed with me and after awhile, said, "Mommy, Can you fix breakfast?" Well, my son is fully capable of fixing his own breakfast. (Ie. bagels, waffles, fruit, even scrambled eggs, My ds is 7 1/2) I said, "Hon, why don't you fix your breakfast?" He hopped out of bed with the reply of, "OK!" Then he called back down the hall that I could stay in bed till he was done. Well, I drug myself out of bed, got dressed, made up my bed, and was starting to unpack from our trip last week, and my son comes back in my room. He wanted to know what I was doing out of bed, because he wanted to serve me breakfast in bed! I hopped onto the bed and told him that I still could have breakfast in bed, even though technically I was up. So, he brought me scrambled eggs with a glass of water on a tray. Then he brought his eggs and bagel to my room and we both had "breakfast in bed." I had tears in my eyes as I thanked him for this selfless act. My son has a heart to serve, a very compassionate boy. Thank you God for my blessings!
