My Nephew

Then we got home and I was offering everyone some juice.  Devin said he wanted some - I asked him to add please to that - he said "no."  Then I said, "then no juice."  So I poured the other kids some if they said please and came back to him.  I said "if you say please I will say yes you can have some."  He said no.  then he said thoughtfully, "I said please yesterday"  I about laughed outloud.   Yes I said, "but you have to be polite everytime you ask for something. "  He was quiet and then said "no."  So I said, "okay well then no juice, that's fine if that's your choice."  And he walked away and I hear him laughing in the bedroom - so he obviously isn't tramatized.  But how funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    (:    He didn't eat the most balanced diet while staying with me and I didn't know what to push like I know with  my own kids but he accepted my terms usually without a big fuss.  (:
