Wanted to share a little 'win' with everyone!

My 4 year old was cleaning up the living room while I did the kitchen and made dinner. The living room has gotten a little out of control worth the holidays and had a lot of toys all over everywhere. His mess. But a big job for a little guy.He did it without complaint. No arguing at all. And that was enough of a win, but he really has never had any trouble chipping in. So not the point of the story.Anyway I noticed I didn't hear him anymore and I went looking for him. I found him on the floor in his bedroom. He has dropped his Lego set on the floor and it shattered into a million pieces. He didn't come running into the living room crying. He didn't throw a fit or lose his temper. He simply went and got the directions (which I had no idea he he saved) and sat down and put it back together.And when he was done, he put it all away and started cleaning the living room again.If I hadn't have gone looking for him, I'd have never known about any of it.It is a win. I can't call it a parenting win, because it's all on him. But honesty I was just so proud of him!And I knew I wanted to share somewhere because I wanted to brag. But I know my friends don't have kids so they just don't understand why it's such a big deal. He is turning out awesome! via /r/Parenting http://bit.ly/2AvQvSb
