Oh Good Job!

I have the pleasure now of watching a sweet little boy a few evenings a month. I'm also lucky enough to be able to bring Super along with me. The boys are roughly a year apart but play together so well. On our first encounter, I was shocked and thrilled watching them interact together. We all hunkered down over some books and the boys schooled me in letters. Hunter was especially encouraging and every time me or the other little boy would point out a letter, color or object, Hunter would clap his hands and say "Oh good job!" or "You're right! Good job, Mommy!" I'm so glad he's picked up the ability to praise others and I hope that's a skill he maintains for the rest of his life.
