Life Lessons

Geary and I took the boys plus a friend to lunch at the local elementary school's cafeteria yesterday. Noah's friend pointed a finger to make a comment about someone he recognized and Geary, knowing the boy's parents would agree said, "Please don't point--it's rude." Then Geary demonstrated how to gesture with a flat palm toward whatever he wanted to direct our attention.

Noah, of course, had to get in on the lesson. "This is how you don't be rude," he directed. And then he proceeded to flat palm gesture toward another boy and state in a teachery tone of voice, "That boy has big ears."

We're so proud.
