Spencer walks upstairs with a handful of Honeycomb cereal. Jack starts grunting that he wants some so I ask Spencer if he will share.
Spencer: "Sure. Whenever Jack wants some, I will share."
Me: "Spence, that's so nice. Thanks for sharing."
Spencer: "I will always share with my brother and sisters whenever they want something. I want to obey."
Me: "You have been really good about obeying lately. That makes me so happy."
Spencer: "Yeah. I like to obey because I want to see Jesus. Mom, that's how you see Jesus, right?"
My heart just melted. Yes, Spencer, that's exactly right.

Wow, that is very cute. Can you please teach Jack that it's fun to be nice? I don't know where my innocent, obedient, cute boy went the last few months :)
What an insightful thing to say. Kids are definitely closer to the spirit at times than us adults. Way to go Spencer!
What a smart and well-taught boy you have! You guys have done such a great job teaching your kids.
I love it when they say things like that because I have to stop and say oh good I am doing something right
Awwwwe....I wish my kids would learn that soon! What a good boy!
So darn cute! It just makes you love them to death!
