YEAH!! They are "getting" it!!

On our way home from VBS this morning, the boys were pretty much having a brawl in the back of the Suburban.  I told them to go straight to the utility room when we got home (that's where the disciplining takes place at our home).  Things were totally calmed down by the time we arrived at the house, so I told them we would eat first and then talk.  After we ate, I told them they needed to work together - nicely - stacking the wood and then folding the load of laundry in the dryer.  They left and I put the girls to bed.  A bit later, Micah came inside and said he wanted to talk with me.  Off to the laundry room we went.  He said we needed to wait for Jeremiah to come in also.  Once J came in, Micah immediately apologized (very sweetly) for behaving that way in the car - Jeremiah's apology followed.  I felt like crying - to have Micah, so sweetly, apologize "on his own" was huge!!  Thank you Lord that our training is showing itself.  Even little by little is good :)
