Trying to be nice!

We are always telling the boys when they are not acting nicely.  So this morning for breakfast Levi wanted Steve to make him a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (I really think the kid is going to turn in to a peanut butter and jelly sandwich one of these days because he eats so many!).  Levi was DEMANDING that Steve made him one really.  So Steve told Levi "Go to your room until you can ask nicely."  I am not sure that Levi went to his room, but as some point he came to see me in my bedroom.  This is the conversation:

L "Daddy won't make me a peanut butter sandwich!"

Me "How come?"

L " I don't know!" really kind of whining

Me "Are you acting nicely?"

L "I am TRYING!"

Me "Well, maybe you should go and ask daddy 'Will you please make be a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich?' If daddy still tells you know then that is the answer and don't ask anymore."

L "Okay"

So we walked off and all ended well, because Steve made Levi the sandwich.

Levi is just getting so big that and really holding whole conversations with people.  He tells you when he is mad, sad, angry, happy whatever the emotion.  It amazing me how he is turning into such a little man!
