Wise Big Brothers? Maybe not...

On Tuesday evening of this week when I was at work, Patrick heard an amusing comment from Jacob. They were headed to bed and they were figuring out whose turn it was to "pick the lights." This is because they each have their own preference of a) nightlight, b) closet light, c) no lights on at night. It was causing a lot of issues, so Nathaniel made a calendar and each night there's an initial for whose turn it is to "pick the lights." So, on Tuesday, Jacob was pretty sure it was his turn. However, Leyton & Nathaniel disagreed and were being a bit bossy about it to Jacob and telling him in their less than kind voices at the end of the evening that it was not his pick but it was one of theirs, "because they checked the calendar." Jacob was crying in his closet and said, "Dad, Leyton and Nathaniel don't know everything!"

Just a funny thing to hear as I'm sure he really didn't think much about what he said although it is true for all of us!
