The Other Side

​

​ Babe!  I just walked passed Jadon after dumping my bathroom waste basket. He looked at me and said: “Hi mom. What are you doing with my garbage can?” 👏 That’s the first time he has ever greeted me with Hi mom 🥰  (His bus driver prompts him to say Hi mom EVERYDAY and he never does it!)
