We have to remind him constantly about asking for something politely - that's what this age is all about, afterall.
Most of the time he manages to get out "May peez have ________?"
One night a few weeks ago shortly after he moved into his big boy bed and could get up on his own during the night, I heard the shuffle of his little footsteps coming down the hall to our room.
Soon, there he was, at my beside.
And his sweet little voice in the night: "Mama, may have hold you?"
And my heart melted right then and there.

Mine too, what a sweetie!
Like when my 3 year old says, "Mommy, you are my best fwiend..."
Awwwwwwww!
I'm a puddle...so sweet!
Awww! Of course your heart melted. That is so sweet!
My nieces used to say things like that to me too and I would immediately turn into mush...time just passes so quickly. You've got a sweet little boy there...enjoy every moment!
what a darling! who could say no to that request?
So sweet! And I'm sure he got held too. Those special times are wonderful. Love that snuggling time.
Hugs!

He is SO sweet. What a cute story!
Also, I really liked your poem. What wonderful truth...I am challenged to think beyond my little world. Thanks for sharing. It was wonderful!
Hope you are having a wonderful and blessed weekend, Jill!

I love that age!
How precious is that!
Oh, mine would have too...what a little sweetheart he is!
And I just read your poem below...wow, Jill...that is incredible, and I was in tears.
So incredibly profound and it truly touched me.
Blessings!
How precious!
And you're right about the Josh Groban CD...it's great! My other favorite is an old Point of Grace one. I can't remember the title, but it's got a black & white cover. If you see it, pick it up. It's really good.
whao, these precious moments to treasure. Too cute.
Oh my gosh....I am a big puddle sitting here at my laptop now. My boys are 11 and 13 and there isn't anything that I wouldn't give away to have that moment back...treasure it, it is a blessing!!!

Hi Jill,
I came over from Karolee's blog after reading your husband's birthday tribute to you ! Had to comment when I read this post ... what a sweet little boy you have !
Bonnie
Oh, that is sooo sweet!! My heart just melted!!
Oh that got me all teary. How precious!
It may take a lot of reminding, but it's actually so easy to teach them manners. I find it odd how so many people are always so surprised at mine saying please and thank you on their own.
It's those moments I wish we could store in a bottle...
What a sweet little boy. You are truly Blessed.
That is too too sweet. It's moments like those that you just want to hold on to forever!
He is such a gorgeous boy!
From one Jill to another....
Can I adopt that sweet little boy? That made my heart melt too! Remember & retell that story at his rehearsal dinner. ;-)
