I believe that aliens have taken over the body of my son. To wit: this morning he woke up fifteen minutes early, all by himself. After he ate his breakfast he brought his bowl to the kitchen without me asking him to. I helped him pick out his clothes and then he got dressed without me asking him to. He went and found his shoes and put them on without me asking him to. He then proceeded to go into the bathroom all by himself and brush his teeth, and then decided to put on his coat without me asking him to. I don't think I was even dressed at this point. I think I was too stunned to move. It must be aliens, or perhaps Spring Fever, because he certainly wasn't paying attention to me yesterday when I was talking to him about being helpful and doing things--reasonable things mind you--when I ask him and not needing to have a big fight about everything. That would just be too bizarre.
Hello, Michele sent me!
Isn't it lovely to see those years of training finally start to pay off? :)

Yeah, definitely aliens. No way does any boy do stuf on their own without first being told to do it step by step.
