Breakfast in Bed

While I was putting Lex down for bed, he started talking about the time that he and Connor and Daddy made me breakfast in bed.  Then, he asked if he could have breakfast in bed when he woke up in the morning.  I, of course, am a huge sucker for such cuteness, so I said yes.

The next morning, when Lex woke up, he stayed in his room.  My first thought was about how atypical this behavior was, since he usually runs right out to find either me, Kevin or Connor.  So I went in to talk to him.  His first words were a request for his breakfast in bed.  He had not forgotten.

Milk and chocolate doughnuts

We chatted for a bit, and when he was all done eating, he said, "Thank you for breakfast in bed, Mommy.  It was very special."  He is always so formal with his thank-yous and apologies!

Even though I had to change his sheets for the chocolate crumbs, it was totally worth it to make him happy.
