Oh, what a great teenager!

A few days ago John took the boys to the mall. Bran showed me a shirt he had gotten, I teased him about how big it was. Last night I put it in his room and told him not to forget about packing it, he told me that was for his Dad. He used some of his $ to get John a shirt, and he had already gotten him presents! Then, when he realized last night there wasn't a gift for me, he said they'd have one, I told him no, it was ok b/c his mom and I had agreed not to exchange this year, he had a stunned look on his face, then said no, he asked Foster to get me something. I told him it was ok, not to worry about it.

It's just nice to know that in all the teenage "mess" he can look outside himself so easily! He's really been surprising me the last few months, asking how John's classes were going or how JJ was feeling. Hope it sticks through the next 3 years!
