On Monday, I made fresh bread to enjoy with our dinner. Andrew looked at the bread and said "Please, you make me some cornbread for dinner?". I informed him that I had made fresh bread and that I would make cornbread for another meal.
About 15 minutes after putting the kids to bed that night, I heard Andrew crying. I went in there and asked him what was wrong. I couldn't understand his answer amidst his crying, so I asked Nathan (my translator) why he was upset. Nathan told me that Andrew was crying because he wanted cornbread.
Every night at dinner this week, Andrew has asked if I made cornbread. Guess what is on the menu for tonight -- CORNBREAD. We'll have a happy boy for sure. I guess it's the simple things...
On Tuesday, Elbert heard thumping upstairs after the boys had been put into bed. He went in there to see what was happening. He brought Nathan downstairs and asked him why he was out of his bed. Nathan's reply: "I was leaning out of bed, and gravity pulled me down." We saved our laughter for after he was in bed.

What an intelligent nephew I have! I'm pretty sure Uncle Jeff would not have been able to hold his laughter until later... :)
