After a couple of fairly rough days in the office and a very rough night of little sleep, thanks to Cutler I may have been a bit extra grumpy with both of the boys tonight and especially Mason.  Ok, who am I kidding?  I was unjustifiably extra grumpy  and short-tempered with Mason tonight.  So after getting home from a boys dinner, Melanie is out of town for work, I was relaying a story to Kobi about how I was a horrible parent for letting Cutler cry for 30 minutes in the middle of the night in hopes he would just fall back asleep only to find that he was just hungry and a simple banana did the trick when from across the room Mason quickly corrects me and tells me that I’m not a horrible parent and that I’m in fact a great daddy.  His words, not mine…or something to that effect (I’m tired people).  It damn near brought tears to my eyes as it wasn’t just 15 minutes earlier I was lecturing him on how he needed to be more grateful for all he gets to do and showing his just how great of a daddy I can not be at times of stress. 

I post this not to brag or show everyone how sweet and compassionate Mason is, but simply to have it documented to show Mason in a few years when he is sure to have changed his mind and have completely forgotten about how great of a daddy I am.  Ok, there I go kidding again, there is a bit of bragging involved in this post as well.  🙂
