Sometimes boys are cool...

There’s a huge water bug in the kitchen. I think “Oh shit, Mau just left for work.”. I plead for Skylar to “come here quickly” just to see a reaction of if he would help or not. He pauses then says calmly “Should I get a napkin?”. I would never in my life get near that thing with anything so small as a napkin so I say “Yes, good idea!”. He grabs a napkin and bends down, pushing the now interested dog out of the way. I ask, with fear in my voice “What are you going to do with it?” and he replies “Throw it in the trash can.”. No way, that would mean it’s still in my kitchen, possibly still alive and ready to crawl back out. I say (like it’s the best team plan in the history of the world) “I’ll open the door and you toss it outside.”. He simply picks it up then I hear “Crap, I dropped it…come here little guy.” Then he throws it out the door. I, with a sigh of relief, say “Thank you so much Skylar. I would have been too scared.”. He looks at me over his shoulder and says “He scared me too but, *sigh*, I just did it.” And closes his door to finish his TV program I interrupted. Oh thank you for giving me a boy!
