Mind Your Manners (if you know how!)

As we were leaving swim lessons today, Miles said, "Mommy, David said to the swim teacher, 'ok, sir" (he then burst out laughing, since his teacher is a female). I said, "That's silly. What should David have said instead?" In all seriousness (and quite proud of himself) he said, "ok, woman!" I laughed and a lady walking by us said, 'He just sounds like my husband!" As we continued our walk to the car I gave the boys a refresher lesson on 'sir' and 'ma'am', who you'd use each for, and that its a very polite way to speak. They appeared to be soaking it all in. When we got into the car, I strapped Noah into his carseat and smiled at him. He flashed back a huge grin and genuinely said, "thank you, man." Looks like we'll need a few more lessons tomorrow.....
