Good Manners

Anderson, our little bully, who pulls hair and pushes other little kids down, has the best manners of any 20 month old I know. At least we did something right. He says "please" and "thank you" for everything and even says "your welcome" when someone thanks him. This week he started asking for a napkin at every meal. If we forget to give him one, he says, "Mommy, I messy. Kapin, please." The first time, it took me a minute to figure out what a "kapin" was, but when I did, he was delighted to wipe his hands and face. I guess his cleanliness is supposed to cancel out his rottenness!
