After helping Ynigo bathe and get ready this morning, I was surprised when he looked at me and said, "Mommy, drink your vitamins now". I had to thank him for reminding me as I did really forget. How observant and thoughtful can a child be? I seems like I am not the only one doing the caring and nurturing, my little one is doing the same for me now too.
He has grown up real fast... I can hardly remember the times when he communicated through crying, cooing and babbling. Currently, he is boy with great communications skills, able to sustain discussions with adults around. He also uses this advanced language skills to show care and remind people like me about little things like my vitamins.
Moreover, Ynigo also reminds others about good manners. For example while dining together, Ynigo heard his granny say something with food still in her mouth, Ynigo immediately raised his hand to gesture stop and said, "Granny, don't talk yet. Swallow first." He also does not forget to remind people around him to say "opo", "thank you" and "you're welcome". It has been a joy seeing how he has been internalizing character traits we have been trying to model and teach him. I am then reminded that we, as parents, need to be careful with how we act, we have to be consistent, we have to walk the talk.
Yes Master Ynigo!
ReplyDeleteMagaling na talaga ang mga bata ngayon minsan sila pa ang magpapaalala sa ating matatanda na bawal yan sa iyo.
Naalala ko po dito yun pamangkin ko na 4 years old kapag nakikita nya akong kumakain ng chocolates sinasabihan nya ako,alam nyang bawal sa akin ang chocolates dahil sasakit daw yung ulo ko (migraine).
Sobrang observer at aware yun mga bata ngayon na matatawa ka na lang kasi hindi mo ma-imagine na sila pa ang mag-reremind sa iyo.

ReplyDeleteWow! How nice is Ynigo and how lucky T.Beth as a mom because she has a very cute and loving angel^__^
ReplyDeleteThis article is one of good example on how parents nurtured and cared their kids to build up good values and characters. It is really true that the best teacher of a child will come up to their parents, because what the child act at home will be followed in their environment and as well how they respond to others.
