Wow, the boy got that one right...Never underestimate the sensibility of children. Sometimes they become the teachers...My hats off to your boy, so glad that the two of you had the opportunity to share the experience...

Patti,
I think your son deserves a reward too! Be sure to get one for yourself as you are fast approaching a MONTH smokefree. Way to go :)
All the best

Patti,
Your story brought a tear to my eye!!
What a reason you have to stay quit!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your very blessed to have such a wonderful boy.
Don't be too hard on yourself. It is hard to quit and sometimes little things like what happend puts it all into focus.
We overlook how exciting quiting can actually be. We never think of it as a journey..... an enlightening one at that!
It will get better little by little. Sometimes it improves in such little segments we don't even see how far we have come.
Look at this as one of your turning stones.
I'm proud of you.
Mercy

How sweet - thanks for sharing.
Early on in my quit, I found notes from my son that said he was proud of me, and chocolates under my keyboard! :)

Just wanted to say thanks to all the great posts. I DO have wonderful children and he sure showed me. I am thankful to say that I have not done that to him again, as I promised him, and things seem to be going just fine now.
