When we came home from church, and I noticed a really cool bug, I called Navy over to get it. She was loving the Praying Mantis we found, and played with it for a while.
Then I went in to where she was writing a note to our neighbor who is a 9 year-old bug lover and expert. When I saw that she was writing a note to Brennan, I was so pleased that she was going to give him the cool bug we had found. When I commented on how nice she was, she said, “Duh mom! This was already Brennan’s praying mantis. Scout let it out the other day from its cage, and we have been looking for it. Brennan has been so sad about losing it. Now he can finally have it back.”
Wow.
What a paradigm shift.
