Five boys.
I'm trying to train five boys to be young gentlemen.
Yes, we live in the woods but please boys. . .
Let your behavior not portray that you were perhaps
raised by a pack of wolves! (That line's for you, Jane!)
No elbows on the table; No slurping; Please get a kleenex;
That piece of meat is WAY to big for our mouth; No toilet
talk; Wash your hands; Put your glass at 12:00; Do not
lick your plate; You need to ask to be excused; Bring your
plate to the sink. . .
Now we have two boys in the house who continually use
their shirt collar in place of a napkin.
It drives. me. crazy.
I know these bad habits will dissipate as the years go by (please!)
but for now I will have to remind them, each time they're caught,
to NOT wipe their face with their shirt! PLEASE!!
Happy Wednesday!. . . Happy Training!
BTDT with five sons and wish you success, Heather! (And I won't say which one of those manners they never seem to learn......)
