One thing you have to love about kids this age is their honesty and openness. Sometimes, the comments they make can make you embarrassed by their behavior such as the comment Connor made to Papa yesterday "Why are YOU here at our house?". Sometimes, you get tickled by their keen observations like the comment Connor made to uncle Matthew (who is usually in flight mode) "What are YOU doing here?". Other times, you are surprised by their honesty and willing to admit to their own behaviors.
Today, I commented to Connor that this has been a good weekend and that you boys have been very good this weekend. This was the following conversation...
Connor: I'm sorry I gave you a hard time yesterday.
Mom: You didn't give us a hard time yesterday. You guys were really good and we had a fun day. We went to McDonald's, we went to the zoo and you guys spent the evening with Gma and Papa while mommy and daddy had a date night.
Connor: I was kind of bad yesterday.
Mom: You were, I don't remember that.
Connor: I gave you a hard time when it was time to get me dressed and I wasn't listening. I'll try to not give you a hard time next time.
Like I said, gotta love their honesty. However, I will believe the promises when I see it! Also, so far I have escaped the public comments to strangers about their looks or public displays.
By the way, if Connor has no reason to leave the house (and he will defend that position), there is no reason to change out of the PJs. He likes his comfort.
