Gratitude- A Mother's Gift

My son Ammon objected to the post I did of him the other day. Now, if there was one particular photo or story that embarrassed him, I would respect that. Alas, he objected to the entire thing. He's sure, for some reason that his friends are going to read it. I don't think he really appreciated how much restraint I showed. He wasn't grateful at all! Because we're all about gratitude over here, I decided to give him a learning opportunity- a lesson on how thankful he should have been. I present for your viewing pleasure, a little movie I call "Interpretive Dance!" Ammon style. Enjoy.
Well, Ammon came home from school, and he assures me he's feeling pretty grateful right now. And he wants me to delete it. Sigh. Ah well.
Update: He has given it a chance and reconsidered. He thinks it's hilarious, and I can put it back up, providing I let him make a new video. Actors can be so demanding!

Wow, your son is a mover and a shaker. I think you are such a fun mom to post about them. He should love you! Thanks for sharing.:O)

Remind me to always show gratitude when I am around you.

Life's lessons: when you think things are bad...they can ALWAYS get worse.
And he gets to learn those important lessons from Mom. You're good.

I didn't know dancing would require so much bruising action!

I think your children are a bad influence on mine.
