Making dinner

Last night, Colin totally surprised me. Just before Bob got home, Colin went into the kitchen and decided to make dinner. He was cutting carrots (with a butter knife) and wanted to make tea and oatmeal. I helped with the tea and oatmeal (hot water plus 5-year old, not a good combo usually). Bob and I had to make our own dinner, but that was okay. As the boys were sitting there eating their carrots and oatmeal, I heard Nathan say, "Colin, thank you for lunch." Priceless.
