Quietly Becoming More Than We Expect

“One day, my child asked me a really simple question. ‘Can I try something

by myself?’ I said yes and didn’t think much of it. For the next hour, the house was completely

quiet. Too quiet. When I finally went to check on him, I expected a mess…

or at least a mistake. Instead, he showed me something he had planned, tested,

and fixed on his own. He explained it step by step, like he’d practiced.

In that moment, I realized something. Kids aren’t just learning from us. Sometimes,

they’re quietly becoming more than we expect.”
