Chivalry is not dead!

16 comments

Oliver and I were sitting down to our stacks of pancakes at the breakfast table a few days ago when Scout (our Weimaraner) started scratching at the back door to let us know she wanted to join us inside.


I started to stand up when Oliver stopped me saying, "Mommy, don't get up! I'll take care of it!" and proceeded to leave his own plate of pancakes to let Scout inside for me.

Chivalry is not dead, folks. Even for three year olds! Or, at least for three-year-olds whose daddies take great care of their pregnant mommies!

Thanks for setting a good example, honey!

And now, if Scout could just grow some opposable thumbs and learn to let herself in...
