One, Two, Three, JUMP!

Owen likes to jump on the couch. I offered my hand but he said, "I jump all by myself, Nana." He does like to do EVERYTHING all by himself now. We draw the line when he wants to hold the lighter to start a fire in the fireplace with Papa. It's hard to say no to him, that's for sure. And when Papa says no it's not very authoritative, it's almost like a plea, "Please don't make me say no, Owen." He was the same way with our kids when they were little. It forced me to have to jump in and become the dictator disciplinarian times two. Just like Owen, Nana has to discipline all by myself.

I do love him, but what a softy.

Today I am thankful for jumping boys and weeds (I pulled a few in the yard today and it felt glorious).
