Self-sufficient Boy

Wally came in to cuddle with me this morning. After a few minutes, I told him I needed to take a shower and asked if he wanted to lay in my bed watching tv. He was happy and chose what he wanted to watch.

After my shower, I poked my head into my room to see how he was doing. He was sitting right where I left him, but had a bowl on his lap. I assumed Rick came home while I was in the shower and got him some breakfast. As I turned to go back in the bathroom, Wally said, "Mommy, I got these marshmallows all by myself. I got out a bowl, I opened the bag then I poured them in the bowl carefully so I wouldn't spill them. I was very careful." I told him I was proud of him and he shouldn't eat too many of them as I would be making him a real breakfast."

As I headed back in to the bathroom, he said,"Mommy, I got myself some milk, too. Fresh from the fridge."

I asked if he poured it himself. He told me he didn't, that it was already in there. I was relieved to know that he hadn't poured it himself. I am sure that would have made a cute mess.
