On Friday, we had a tree cut down in our backyard. H enjoyed watching the 2 men work and immediately started calling them “Guys.” He spent most of the evening looking out at them through the french doors in the family room and walking out onto our screened porch for a closer look. He was thrilled with the entire process.
The “guys” were still working when it was time for H to go to bed. I took him outside to say goodnight to Blue Eyes. H told his father good night, but couldn’t keep his eyes off of the “guys”. He said it at first under his breath, “Goodnight Guys.” Then when he didn’t get a response, he said it a bit louder, until he finally said it LOUD AND CLEAR.
The “guy” who wasn’t up in the tree smiled and waved to H. H was pleased and then and only then was he ready for bed.
Last night at bedtime, H and I did our normal routine, which includes a story and prayers. We said our prayers together and then asked God to bless each member of our family. After we said “God Bless Granddaddy,” H added a blessing of his own.
“God Bless the Guys.”
Who knew that a couple of guys cutting down a tree could make such an impression?
That’s adorable.
Sweet.
Precious!
Little kids LOVE watching “guys” work outside on anything.
Too cute!
OMG! That is so sweet!
That is just oh so cute! I guess all that manliness (manlyness? how the heck do you spell that word??!) really impressed him, huh?
Little “guys” – they’re so cute!
So cute!! This sounds so like my little man. I love these little guys and their precious insights.
That’s so touching.:)
Isn’t that adorable! I just love that he prayed for them.
