Today Gavin and I went to go get his haircut and there was a wait over an hour, so we killed sometime and had a date. We went to Red Robins and had pizza, chocolate milk for him and I got a root-beer float. Well when my drink got there he was upset he saw it had ice cream and his didn't, so of course I just had to share. As we were leaving they came out with a load of their red, Red Robin balloons and he raced over and asked for one. I am proud to say that my 2 year old has some of the best manners, even compared to some adults nowadays. He makes certain to always say please, thank, and you're welcome. He literally ran right up to the man and said "Balloon please!" Then once he handed him one said with a big grin, "Thank you!" and ran back to me and thanked me as well. After our little date he was tired so we just headed home and decided to try again tomorrow.
Before Gavin goes to bed every night we have family prayer in his room. It's a sweet moment as his love for his brothers is so strong and shines through. He insists on sitting in between them as they kneel for prayer. I hope one day when they're older he looks back at moments like those and remembers that at the end of the day Carson and Cole love him and that they are brothers for eternity and that's what matters!
