“I Was Here First!”

Tommy has been in a "My Mommy" phase these last few weeks. Every time Tyler sits with me on the couch, Tommy will try to force his way in the middle, saying, "My Mommy, my mommy!" and pushing his brother away. Of course, we are not trying to encourage this behavior, but sometimes we just have to laugh. Naturally I have tried several times to explain to him that while I am his mommy, I am also his brothers' mother too….he won't have that.

Well, this morning Travis was making himself an egg/English muffin sandwich (thanks again for the egg forms, Melissa); and he wanted me to help him with something. Tommy had just climbed up on me, wanting to see what was cooking. I had to put Tommy down to help Travis, and I told him so. He instantly started with "my Mommy!" to which Travis quickly responded, "She's my Mommy too, and I was here first!"

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye Heavenly Host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.
