I've been showing him for months and he kept giving up. This morning he just decided to do it and nailed it on the second try. The look on his face was priceless. We're going to be late to preschool but I don't even care, this is huge!
That's awesome! Those little wins stick with you. I remember my oldest finally getting shoes down and I probably told everyone at work that day. You've been patient with him and it paid off.
Dude, that's the stuff right there. When they finally nail something they've been working on, that look on their face makes it all worth it. Congrats to him and to you for sticking with the teaching.
This right here. This is what it's all about. The moment they just decide they're ready and they do it. Congrats, man. Your 4yo is a legend.
Dude, those are the wins that actually matter. You showed him how to do it and then let him figure it out himself. That's parenting done right. Way better than any promotion.
to join the conversation.
YES. This is the stuff right here. Those moments stay with you forever. My 6yo has been trying to tie his shoes forever and I'm still waiting for that moment but seeing you nail it makes me so hyped for when it happens.
