Sweet Forgiveness

We've had our fair share of getting sick for the last month and half. Needless to say, we haven't gotten much sleep. Cameron woke up at about 5 am, ready for the day. I was a dead woman walking. I went in his room and literally yelled in his face to be quiet (one of my bad mom moments). Then I took a deep breath and laid next to him for a minute. He turns to me and says,

"Mommy, you need to use your nice words"

"I know buddy, I'm so sorry."

He pauses, and sweetly looks at me,"It's okay mommy."

Oh, what a lesson on forgiveness. Thank you my sweet Cameron.

Dan asked how to spell "mean" today at breakfast. He was writing a note that said, "mom you are mean!" ;0 I guess he didn't like getting ordered to get ready for school.
