Looking forward to tomorrow.
Today, I went shopping with Tiarnan, three. When we got home, Tiarnan helped carry the shopping. Indeed, he took two shopping bags from the boot of the car, having to use his whole body weight to drag one out. It wasn't an easy task for him, but he gave it all his determination.
He hefted the smaller bag over his shoulder, and carried the other one in his clenched right fist, leaning to the left to balance its, to him, humongous weight.
At that moment, he uttered the immortal words: "I am a man!"
I had to smile, but luckily, restrained a laugh. He didn't see my reaction, though, for I was behind him.
I accompanied my little "man", into the house, with the shopping. It was a sweet moment.
