That's so sweet, otherwise entitled "We are good parents after all"

Both of these incidents happened yesterday.

Boba Fett did not know about April Fool's Day until his singing teacher taught him all about it in class. On April 1st I was subjected to numerous very, very poor 4 year old April Fool's jokes. I Told Boba Fett "I am so mad at Miss E. for teaching you about April Fool's!" So yesterday Boba Fett was telling Danger about this and I said, "Did you tell Miss E. that I was so mad at her?" and he said in shock,"No, that would hurt her feelings."

While I was cutting Commander C's hair we were discussing the kids in his primary class. We were discussing a particularly disruptive boy that Commander C is friends with. I said "you like him though, even though he is disruptive." He said "Yeah, but he isn't going to be a very good leader."
I about fell over! Leadership education does work. Unfortunately, I did not investigate his thought process to find out how Commander C evaluates potential leadership qualities.
