putting Bigger's character qualities into practice

Post by creativemommy » Fri May 18, 2012 9:23 pm

We are 14 units into Bigger with my ds. We were in our backyard today when I needed something from our garage. I was going to open the door when my son ran ahead and did it. I said, "Thanks." and he replied, "I'm showing initiative."

Taking initiative is the character quality we studied this week. :)

Ha! So cute! My little one has learned the word 'initiative' from his brother who was doing Bigger. :D Now, every time my little one does a task without being asked, he says, "I showed initiative!"

Gotta love that! :D

Blessings,
Carrie
