generosity


Abraham: What are you eating?

Me: Granola with milk.

Abraham: Can I have a bite?

I give him a bite.

Abraham:  You know it’s a good idea to give some to somebody who doesn’t have any. Let’s practice that.

Me: What about if I just share some with you and give you some bites?

Abraham: No, I think you should put it right here. (points to his spot at the table)

I give in because, hey, isn’t this what I’m trying to teach him? As he sits down and digs in he says, “Now I’m happy! Are you happy?”

What a sweet kid. Either that or very manipulative.... :)
