I love being a Mom! What a blessing all of my children are to me. This story, however is about JS. If any of you know my JS you know what a giving and sweet boy he is. He is always there with a flower for me or for his Aunts and Grandma's. He is always telling me in my worst moments that he thinks i'm beautiful (4 and 5 times a day). He is very thoughtful of his siblings and parents. All this while being a rough and tough little boy.
Today for show and tell JS took a new buzz lightyear toy to share with the children. His preschool teacher has a little 2 year old that JS is constantly cottling and taking care of. He loves this little boy! He talks about him constantly. Raiden did this...Raiden did that...
When he got to school thismorning and took out his Buzz Lightyear, his teacher said to him...Uh oh JS...you'd better show that and put it back in your bag before Raiden sees it. Unfortunately, JS didn't get it in the bag in time, and of course Raiden took the toy and held it to his chest the rest of classtime. Of course JS was ok with this because he is so good at sharing.
When I arrived today for their Christmas program Raiden was upstairs watching 'The Incredibles' with JS's Buzz lightyear clutched to his chest! What a cutie! The kids had a special program for their Mom's and made a way cute calendar. When we were leaving Raiden's Grandma was telling me how nice JS was for letting Raiden have his Buzz and then told me that Raiden didn't have a Buzz and they've been looking for one. She also told me that Buzz was Raiden's first word! Of course JS was there and heard all of it.
When we arrived home, we put JT down for a nap. When it was time to get JL from school, JS took me in my room with his Buzz that Santa brought him last year and told me it was time for this Buzz to go. Buzz needed a new home with Raiden. I told JS that he didn't have to do that, and that his Buzz was special to him. He told me that Buzz would be more special to Raiden. So after picking JL up from school, we drove to the preschool and gave Raiden a new Buzz Lightyear (that Steven and I bought in Disneyland last year). Raiden was so excited!! Of course Raiden's Mom tried to tell us not to do it, but JS looked her in the eye and told her that it was ok and that it was for Raiden. With tears in her eyes she told JS thank you.
Later in the car, JS told me that it made him happy to give his Buzz to Raiden. What a sweet, good boy I have and I think that his love and unselfishness will be my most favorite and best present ever...
