Today I took Tyler to visit the Dentist. We went to the funnest Pediatric Dental Office. This is a picture of the Outer Space themed waiting room. I also brought along the little brothers....so you can imagine the chaos inside that waiting room this morning with the three little monkeys running all over the place.Tyler did a great job though, and he came out with a smile, a certificate, and a balloon! And this made his little brothers quite envious and upset. (Even little Blakie was mad....and he was making a stink over it too...I was shocked.) After a few minutes of screaming, crying and tantrums, the dental assistants had two more balloons rushed out to the other two boys! (Emergency)
Well, as soon as everyone was happy we headed out the door to the car. Sadly only two of the three balloons made it to the car. Blakie had a tight grip on his, and Tyler wisely tied his to his wrist. Talmage had the bad luck. He became devastated as they all watched it float up into the sky and disappear. He was sobbing as he slowly moped into the car. I buckled him in and as I did so, I saw that Tyler was watching with a very sympathetic look on his face. Just as I buckled Talmage in and wiped away some of the many tears streaming down his face, Tyler said, "Tally, I think that you are a good little boy and that Jesus loves you. I think that Jesus is going to send your balloon back!"
Talmage just kept crying, but my heart was so happy!

Your boys are so sweet, and they have to learn it from somewhere ...good job Mom! I love the little paybacks that come when you are not expecting them, it makes it all worth it.
p.s. We go to the same dentist, so much fun!
You have obvioulsy taught them well-what sweet things!
HAHAHA! Oh my gosh that just made my day. I love that little Tyler..I want to squeeze his cheeks. What a smart little boy-Tally Jesus does love you! And so does your aunt Tiffy!
I love you boys! I totally want more info on the space dentist.
Tyler sounds so grown up for just a little guy! I also don't know how you do it with Three!
What a darling big brother Ty is! He is basically a celebrity at our house and I have taken to using him as my constant example for little Cole. I am all over "Ty wears this... And Ty eats all of his dinner..." He is such a good boy and I am so grateful for his little example. He is incredibly sweet and you are such a good momma! Love and Miss you all! xxoo
ps... Dr. Stark is my favorite! And my kids both love him. So nice that it is a pleasant experience instead of a scary one!
Katie!
Love this post. Little boys are a riot.
quick question, on your Kates list blog... how were you able to have things on both sides of the main blog post? Am I making sense? Shoot me over an email with the answer!
Hope all is well,
Jon
I bet you just melted, how incredibly sweet. The others here are right, you have definitely done a great job of raising these boys to be such fine gentlemen. Nicely done!
