Potty Robber

I woke up at 2:15 this morning to my son's frantic voice. "I needa go potty! I need help!" So I staggered out of bed and helped him get to the toilet. He gets terribly upset if I turn even a dim light on in the middle of the night, so I left them off and felt my way over to the sink to wash my hands when he was done. I finally got back to my bed and plopped myself down. Right on top of a skinny little three year old.
Me: You stole my spot, Jordan!
Jord: No, I sleep here too.
Me: No. Scoot over if you want to stay in here. Otherwise go to your own bed.
Jord: Okay, I gonna scoot over and go get my blankie. Den I come back ok?
Me: Okay.
Jord: Don't steal my spot, Mommy. I be really mad if you do. I get da edge.

Are you kidding me?! I got hijacked.

Ungentlemanlike Conduct

We left the doctor's office the other day and I held the door for the man behind us. He walked out the open door into the lobby with us and rushed around us to the next door. I was thankful because I had both kids with me and maneuvering out the door butt first can be a challenge when the door is heavy. So the man opened the door and... well, let it slam in our faces. Hmm. I re-opened it and ushered my little brood out right behind this man when Jordan decided to go all vocal. "Hey guy!" Jordie yelled to him (the man was only a few steps ahead of us). "You're rude! You are NOT a gentleman!" Geez it's one thing to be rude and have somebody confront you about it, but dude just got called out by a three year old for ungentlemanlike conduct. And on the other side of this, my toddler just stuck up for us. I'm a proud mommy! :)
