Breakfast at Brayden's
Saturday morning, Brayden comes into our room and proclaims that he is thirsty. I looked at Bobby with that "it's your turn look" and I given the same look in return. So my lazy self told Brayden that he was almost 5 and that I thought today would be a great day to learn to fix his own drink. At first he explained that he couldn't reach the glasses, so I told him to grab his bathroom stool. So he was off and on a mission. We laid there and listened to him. We could hear him dragging the stool and slamming the cabinet door after getting his Scooby Doo mug. We heard the fridge open and he yells "can I have Kool-Aid"? My first thought was "red kool-aid is not going to be fun to clean up", but I said yes anyway, because the other option was milk and the thought of him handling a full gallon of milk was worse than the Kool-aid. We heard him pour it and put it back in the fridge. Mission accomplished...or was it? He then told us that he was now going to fix his own breakfast. I decided to lay back and see what he came up with. So after about 10 minutes he said that he was done and he wanted us to come see. So we drug ourselves out of bed and headed to the kitchen. The plate you see below is what we were presented with.

Good for him!!! That is such an accomplishment!! I loved it when Baylee got to that age. I sometimes would put drinks "already made" in the fridge and she knew she could get up and get them. I usually would leave pop tarts or something like that out too. Occasionally, a bowl of cereal (already poured and put in the fridge) and a small cup of milk for her to pour over it. Now she can do all that herself! She can even fix her own sandwich! My oh my how they grow up!
