I was busy with something today and Josh was playing in the entry-way. I heard him playing with the door stop-springy thing, and after a couple minutes he walked over to me slowly with it in his hand...
He said, "Hey Mom, I broke it." and handed it to me. I looked at him with that sideways-mommy-look and said, "Joshy, were you playing with Nana's door stop and broke it?" He said, "Yeah." I told him that he needs to not play with Nana's things but I was glad he came to me and told me that he broke it, and that I would fix it for him.
I went over to the entry-way and screwed the door stop back into the wall, when I turned the corner to come into the living room- Josh was already in his "Time out spot" with both hands up on the wall and his forehead resting on his hands.
I couldn't help but grin when I saw this. He looked up at me with the corner of his eye and I said, "Are you in time out?" He nodded.
I got him out of time out and off he played.
What a good kid I've got.
Kelly.
