The Parent Trap
* driving to Shopper's after Brady's dentist appt. tonight *
Brady: Can you believe it Mom, I was so brave tonight?
Mom: I know buddy, I'm so proud of you! No tears at all tonight.
Brady: I did have 1 tear, but I sucked it back in & let her keep going!
Mom: What??? Really??? I didn't see even 1 tear.
Brady: I felt it, but I just squeezed your hand tight & didn't get upset.
Mom: I can tell you're growing up, because you were such a brave young man tonight. I'm so proud of you Brady.
Brady: I'm so proud of myself too!
Mom: Well, wait until Daddy, Nana & Luca hear how great you did, they'll be so proud of you too!
Brady: I know Mom, and they'll know that I was brave & that you did some great parenting too!
Mom: Thanks Brady! * laughing hysterically *

Mom: So what's 1 thing you learned today at school?
Brady: Ooohhh, today we learned about JUICY words!!!
Mom: What's that?
Brady: Well, you know...a juicy word is a word that's in a story and it makes the reader want to keep reading more.
