This past Monday, the whole family attended a Boy Scout function called a Court of Honor where the boys are recognized for rank advancement and merit badges earned in front of peers, parents and siblings. The COH also had a bbq potluck. Well, for awhile now it has been a little tricky getting food for all three little ones and be able to eat yourself because inevitably you have to pile enough on your plate for all, while the other parent sits at the table making sure no one is getting into mischief - and then you trade spots. I'm very happy to report that we've had a break through - all three lined up behind daddy, got in the buffet line and patiently waited their turn to get a plain roll on their plate (advanced maneuvers such as any foods containing moisture is in the offing). All three made it back to their seat, roll still on the plate. Fancy footwork on Kitten's part was shown when having to navigate around a scout picking up a chair and moving it to another table. Monkeyboy merely bowled through scouts, tossing them aside with a focused look of which all took heed. Princess used her wide, bright blue eyes to charm a passage back to her seat. I'm so proud of them.

I hope this doesn’t break my mother-son confidentiality agreement….
