| Pre-K // Day 2 |
Yesterday we stopped by the donut store on the way to school. Mason picked out a glazed donut with white icing with a black storm trooper ring in the center of it. He loves those donuts with the silly little rings. And I love that those silly little things excite him. We paid for his donut and headed back into the car. I was already buckling him in his car seat when he says,
"but, I would like to get a donut for Ms Mistty Mama"
Without any hesitation I said sure and unbuckled him and we went back in. While we were walking I told him that he was a sweet sweet boy with a sweet heart and he says,
"Yes mama just like you. I want to do something nice for her."
Cue the tears!!!
We walked back in and the owner tilted her head and looked at us and said 'you forget something?' And I told her that Mason wanted to pick out a donut for his teacher. The lady behind us said, "Oh how sweet!" and Mason just smiled. He picked her out a donut with pink icing and sprinkles and we were on our way.
Anytime my baby wants to give I will not stop him! I love that he has such a sweet soul and a giver's heart. I want to encourage that. I want to encourage giving...and not just of material things but of many things. Giving his time to help a person in need, giving a shoulder to lean on, praying for others, etc.
It was something so little, but yet so so big.
Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee
- Deuteronomy 16:17
That's so sweet! It is encouraging to know that there are little boys being raised and encouraged to be good men!
