Jack has become buddies with our next door neighbors. Two little boys ages 6 and 4. It couldn't be more perfect.
They come over to ask if Jack can play, and every night before dinner, Jack will ask " Can I go over their house?" He does one of those scenes that you see in a movie, where he scarfs down his food, says thank you for dinner and then asks" Ok . now can we go over their house?"
Last night, the boys did come over. They stayed for 40 minutes which was enough for a late play time.
When they came in the house, Brian asked the boys if they wanted something to drink. They responded no, and Jack said" Yeah, what would you like? Would like you apple juice, orange juice? "
Brian pointed out what a perfect host Jack became at that moment, and my heart just went to butter. Here is my kid, who is learning on what manners are and how to treat people , and just showed to us without us even teaching him something small as offering a drink to your guests.
When they left, all his trains were on the floor, and even his small play table was tipped over. What were these kids playing? Being the host that Jack was, I guess he let his guests pretty much play with every toy and table that was in his room.
