What a simple concept
I am working from home some these days and really enjoying it. Since school is out now and Chandler is home with me those days we have implemented "home school" the days we are home together. Chandler does his home school work and I do my grown up mommy work. Yesterday was one of those days, so I am sitting at my desk and he is doing his work on the floor in the office. Then I hear "Oh look at the little ants". This absolutely sends me into a panic because I hate ants, spiders, bugs in general. So here I go scurrying to kill the ants that have found their way into the house and Chandler is screaming "Would you like to be treated like that?". A little side note, my son has turned into a humanitarian. His new philosophy on life is treat every living thing the way you would want to be treated. What a simple but great concept! Just imagine how much better the world would be if we all took that and used it in our everyday lives. I am just not convinced that the ants would have treated me with the same respect and not bit me on my toes. Long story short, we saved the ants. I let Chandler wrangle them up and then release them outside where they belong. I know you are saying to yourself are you kidding me here, but what other response did I have for my little boy without shattering his perfect world vision. And besides, I kinda like the vision myself.
