Appropriate Timing

So, I am loving remembering all the great stories that we have---I really wish that I would have started this sooner. This is the story that I remembered this weekend.

The boys & I were out shopping when they were about 3 & 4 years old. Shopping is not my favorite thing to do with them, but I had to go. We were in The Limited & I was trying on this black dress and Tate looked at me and said, "Mommy you are so beautiful in your dress." My heart just melted and I was telling him he was so sweet and how much I loved him. Well, I guess Trey felt a little left out because the next store we went into was Victoria's Secret. Victoria's Secret is really a dreaded store to go to with the boys, but again, it had to be done. So, I was trying on a bra and Trey looked at me and said, "Mommy that is so pretty on you." Not really the really the appropriate store or clothing garment, but I totally appreciated his comment too. I told him how much I loved him too & we were done shopping.
