A Courteous Little Boy

♥My son knows how to ask permission.
♥My son knows when to say: "excuse me"

♥My son says "please" if needs and wants something. He waits until he is told to.

♥My son says "thank you" and "welcome".

♥With a simple cough or sneeze, my son will ask you: " are you okay?"

♥My son helps any person in need. A kid drops his toys, he will stop and help the kid.

♥My son doesn't know how to fight... he'll just ignore the sad little monster. Later on, you'll be surprise, that  the sad little monster is his new playmate.

♥My son is a contented person. He never asks  for more, and he greatly appreciates the small things we give him.

These are my greatest achievements in life as a person and as a parent. At this early stage in life... having a courteous little boy around makes me a proud mother. I am a happy mom, because I am able to raise a child who's loving, caring, patient and kind... Witnessing these values grow in him is the most rewarding part as a parent. When he was just a baby, I think of  simpler situations. Like wanting him to stop with bottle-feeding, or potty train him as soon a possible. But after all that, it's the child's personality that really matters. It's the Being in him that must be guided towards the right path. And it's true , that we parents greatly affect that personality. How we discipline and educate our children and the attention and time we give them. 

I must admit, when my husband and I were starting, I had thoughts and troubles if I will be able to raise a good child. I'm just human, I've never taken this road before.

The simple gestures of my son is showing at the age of 6 are precious to me. 

Treasures. 

 It only means that I am on the right path with him...
